    Title: On the Provisional Revolutionary Government
  • 9 Occurence(s) of the search term concreteDescription:
    Plekhanov's syllogism is in fact somewhat -- shall we say, to put it mildly -- "dialecti.Because Marx, in the corresponding concrete situation of a concrete democratic revolution, said that the ascent to the first step would be followed by the ascent to the second, therefore only "critics" of Marx could apply the word philistines to people who, before the first step is ascended, try to scare us with the awful perspective (in the event of an exceptionally well organised and accomplished uprising) of having to leap two steps at onc.     No, indeed, it is not a nice thing to "criticise" Marx . . . but neither is it nice to cite Marx maladroitl

    Title: Preface to Letters my Marx et. al. to Friedrich Sorge
  • 1 Occurence(s) of the search term concreteDescription:
    In these countries -- where bourgeois democratic historical tasks were almost entirely non-existent -- the political arena was completely held by a triumphant and self-satisfied bourgeoisie, unequalled anywhere in the world in the art of deceiving, corrupting and bribing the worker.     To think that these recommendations, made by Marx and Engels to the British and American working-class movements, can be simply and directly applied to Russian conditions is to use Marxism not in order to achieve clarity on its method, not in order to study the concrete historical features of the working-class movement in definite countries, but in order to pay off petty, factional, and intellectualist score.     On the other hand, in a country where the bourgeois democratic revolution was still unconsummated, where "military despotism, embellished with parliamentary forms" (Marx's expression in his Critique of the Gotha Programme )[149]-- prevailed, and still does, where the proletariat had long ago been drawn into politics and was pursuing a Social-Democratic policy -- in such a country what Marx and Engels most of all feared was parliamentary vulgarisation and philistine derogation of the tasks and scope of the working-class movemen

    Title: Position and Tasks of the Socialist International
  • 1 Occurence(s) of the search term concreteDescription:
    In addition to what has been said in the leading article, we need only mention the insulting statements in Die Neue Zeit, suggesting that internationalism consists in the workers of one country shooting down the workers of another country, allegedly in defence of the fatherlan.     The question of the fatherland -- we shall reply to the opportunists -- cannot be posed without due consideration of the concrete historical nature of the present wa.This is an imperialist war, i.e., it is being waged at a time of the highest development of capitalism, a time of its approaching en

        The basic mistake made by those who now criticise What Is To Be Don.is to treat the pamphlet apart from its connection with the concrete historical situation of a definite, and now long past, period in the development of our Part.This mistake was strikingly demonstrated, for instance, by Parvus (not to mention numerous Mensheviks), who, many years after the pamphlet appeared, wrote about its incorrect or exaggerated ideas on the subject of an organisation of professional revolutionarie

    Title: Preface to the Pamphlet by Voinov
  • 1 Occurence(s) of the search term concreteDescription:
    Revolutionary work in the trade unions, shifting the emphasis from parliamentary trickery to the education of the proletariat, to rallying the purely class organisations, to the struggle outside parliament, to ability to use (and to prepare the masses for the possibility of successfully using) the general strike, as well as the "December forms of struggle",[86] in the Russian revolution -- all this comes very strongly into prominence as the task of the Bolshevik tren.And the experience of the Russian revolution immensely facilitates this task for us, provides a wealth of practical guidance and historical data making it possible to appraise in the most concrete way the new methods of struggle, the mass strike, and the use of direct forc.These methods of struggle are least of all "new" to the Russian Bolsheviks, the Russian proletaria

    Title: Principles Involved in the War Issue
  • 7 Occurence(s) of the search term concreteDescription:
    "Socialism" in general, as an aim, as the opposite of capitalism (or imperialism), is accepted  page 154 now not only by the Kautsky crowd and social-chauvinists, but by many bourgeois social politician.However, it is no longer a matter of contrasting two social systems, but of formulating the concrete aim of the concrete "revolutionary mass struggle" against a concrete evil, namely, the present high cost of living, the present war danger or the present wa.     The whole Second International of 1889-1914 opposed socialism to capitalism in general, and it was precisely this too general "generalisation" that brought on its bankruptc

        I shall divide my report on the question of the unity of the Russian Social-Democratic movement into the following four parts: (1) first, I shall explain the gist of the main differences among the Social-Democrats; (2) I shall then quote data concerning the mass working-class movement in Russia, showing how our Party line has been tested by the experience of this movement ; (3) I shall explain how the line and position of our opponents have been tested by the same experienc.Fourth and last, I shall formulate, on behalf of the Central Committee of the Russian Social-Democratic Labour Party, concrete, positive and practical proposals for unit. I     There are two bodies of opinion on what is at present taking place in the Russian Social-Democratic movemen

    Yollos writes the following: "I do not consider Bebel an authority on Russian affairs, but I must observe that in this part of his speech he differs favourably from Kautsky and several other doctrinaires who recommend Revolution in Permanenz (uninterrupted revolutio.As a clever man and politician who realises what concrete forms a state of uninterrupted anarchy assumes in the life of a nation, Bebel sees progress primarily in the promotion of cultural aims, and his words make it quite clear that he draws no line of demarcation and certainly erects no barriers between the Russian  page 320 intelligentsia and the Russian proletariat, at any rate before the elementary rights of man have been secure.     First of all this is a libel on Bebel, a libel fully in the style of Novoye Vremy

    Title: Reply to Criticism of Our Draft Programme
  • 1 Occurence(s) of the search term concreteDescription:
    On the contrary, our formulation, while it does not link up the basic demand with the form of its realisation, nevertheless envisages a strictly definite application of sums received from such realisatio.When Comrade X says that "the Social-Democratic Party cannot undertake in advance to decide in what concrete form the popular representative body will utilise the land which it will have at its command," he is confusing two different things: the method of realising (in other words: "the form of utilising") this land and the application of the sums received from this realisatio.By leaving the question of the application of these-sums absolutely indefinite and tying his hands, even in part, in the question of the method of realisation, Comrade X introduces a double impairment into our draf

  • 1 Occurence(s) of the search term concreteDescription:
    Concessions to nationalist sentiment, even in this disguised form, are impermissible for a proletarian part.     6. The Social-Democratic group's vote in favour of the Progressist (in reality Octobrist) formula of procedure with regard to the declaration of the Minister, and the failure to introduce an independent Social-Democratic formula are a blunder which should be noted by the Party in view of the malicious comments of the liberal press.[177]     7, 8 and 9. (Not to be published.)[178] ILLEGAL LITERATURE     Having discussed the necessity for all-round development of illegal publishing and worked out a number of concrete instructions on the matter, this meeting insistently calls upon all local organisations of the Party, all workers' nuclei and individual workers to show greater independence and initiative in the matter of transport and contacts with the Bureau of the Central Committee[179] for the distribution of illegal literatur. THE INSURANCE CAMPAIGN     Noting that the working class and its Party, despite all persecution, have displayed great energy in upholding proletarian interests in connection with the introduction of the insurance law, this meeting considers:  page 462     1. It is necessary to wage the most determined and concerted struggle against attempts by the government and the capitalists to make the workers elect their delegates to the sick benefit funds blindly, without allowing workers' meeting
