    Title: Letter to American Workers
  • 1 Occurence(s) of the search term reformistDescription:
    In some respects, if we only take into consideration the "destruction" of some branches of industry and of the national economy, America in 1870 was behind 1860. But what a pedant, what an idiot would anyone be to deny on these grounds the immense, world-historic, progressive and revolutionary significance of the American Civil War of 1863-65!     The representatives of the bourgeoisie understand that for the sake of overthrowing Negro slavery, of overthrowing the rule of the slaveowners, it was worth letting the country go through long years of civil war, through the abysmal page 70 ruin, destruction and terror that accompany every wa.But now, when we are confronted with the vastly greater task of overthrowing capitalist wage-slavery, of overthrowing the rule of the bourgeoisie -- now, the representatives and defenders of the bourgeoisie, and also the reformist socialists who have been frightened by the bourgeoisie and are shunning the revolution, cannot and do not want to understand that civil war is necessary and legitimat.     The American workers will not follow the bourgeoisi

    Title: Letter to the British Workers
  • 1 Occurence(s) of the search term reformistDescription:
        I was not surprised to find that several members of your delegation hold a standpoint, not of the working class but of the bourgeoisie, of the exploiting class: in all capitalist countries the imperialist war fully revealed an old ulcer, namely, the desertion of the majority of the workers' parliamentary and trade union leaders to the side of the bourgeoisi.On the false pretext of "defence of country" they were actually defending the predatory interests of either of the two groups of robbers of the entire world -- the Anglo-American-French group, or the German group; page 140 they entered into an alliance with the bourgeoisie, against the revolutionary struggle of the proletariat; they covered up this treachery with sentimental petty-bourgeois reformist and pacifist phrases about peaceful evolution, constitutional methods, democracy, et.This is what happened in all countries; it is not surprising that in Britain this state of affairs has also been reflected in the composition of your delegatio

    The commanding officer of the Moscow Military District sent military units to Tambov Gubernia to crush the peasant uprising, and imposed martial law, but the peasants' revolutionary struggle for land continued to grow in scop.    [p.197]   [83] Scheidemann, Philip (1865-1939) -- a leader of the extreme Right wing opportunist section of German Social-Democracy, and an organiser of the bloody suppression of the German working-class movement in 1918-21.     Renaudel, Pierre (1871-1935) -- a reformist leader of the French Socialist Part.    [p.204]   [84] Planson, A.

    Title: A Letter to the German Communists
  • 1 Occurence(s) of the search term reformistDescription:
        Of course, we do not give the winning of the majority a formal interpretation, as do the knights of philistine "democracy" of the Two-and-a-Half Internationa.When in Rome, in July 1921, the entire proletariat -- the reformist proletariat of the trade unions and the Centrists of Serrati's party -- followed the Communists against the fascists, that was winning over the majority of the working class to our sid.     This was far, very far, from winning them decisively; it was doing so only partially, only momentarily, only locall

    Pyotr Struve, then leader of the Russian liberals page 238 and publisher abroad of an illegal, uncensored organ, two days before "Bloody Sunda.The idea that an illiterate peasant country could produce a revolutionary people seemed utterly absurd to this "highly educated", supercilious and extremely stupid leader of the bourgeois reformist.So deep was the conviction of the reformists of those days -- as of the reformists of today -- that a real revolution was impossibl

De Leon who committed anarcho-syndicalist error.The S.L.P. refused to fight for working-class partial demands, refused to work in the reformist trade unions, and continued losing its ties with the mass working-class movement, weak as they wer.During World War I the Socialist Labour Party inclined towards internationalis

    Title: "Left-Wing Communism, An Infantile Disorder
  • 3 Occurence(s) of the search term reformistDescription:
    It is very difficult to do this in Western Europe and America, very, very difficult; but it can and must be done, for the task of Communism cannot be fulfilled without effort; and our efforts must be devoted to fulfilling practical tasks, ever more varied, ever more closely connected with all branches of social life, winning branch after branch and sphere after sphere from the bourgeoisi.     In Great Britain, further, the work of propaganda, agitation and organization among the armed forces and among the oppressed and unfranchised nationalities in one's "own " state (Ireland, the colonies) must also be taken up in a new way (not in a socialist, but a communist way, not in a reformist, but a revolutionary wa.Because in the era of imperialism generally, and especially now, after the war, which was a torment to the peoples and quickly opened their eyes to the truth (viz., that tens of millions were killed and maimed only for the purpose of deciding whether the British or the German pirates should plunder the largest number of countries), all these spheres of social life are being especially charged with inflammable material and are creating numerous causes of conflicts, crises and the accentuation of the class struggl

    They represent the latest, "modern", type of socialist treachery, for in all the civilised, advanced countries the bourgeoisie rob -- either by colonial oppression or by financially extracting "gain" from formally independent weak countries -- they rob a population many times larger than that of "their own" countr.This is the economic factor that enables the imperialist bourgeoisie to obtain superprofits, part of which is used to bribe the top section of the proletariat and convert it into a reformist, opportunist petty bourgeoisie that fears revolutio.     Between the Spartacists and the Scheidemann men are the wavering, spineless "Kautskyites", who in words are "independent", but in deeds are entirely, and all along the line, dependent upon the bourgeoisie and the Scheidemann men one day, upon the Spartacists the next, some following the former and some the latte

    Title: May Day Action by Revolutionary Proletariat
  • 3 Occurence(s) of the search term reformistDescription:
        A nation-wide political crisis is in evidence in Russia, a crisis which affects the very foundation of the state system and not just parts of it, which affects the foundation of the edifice and not an outbuilding, not merely one of its storey.No matter how many glib phrases our liberals aud liquidators trot out to the effect that "we have, thank God, a constitution" and that political reforms are on the order of the day (only very limited people do not see the close connection between these two propositions), no matter how much of this reformist verbiage is poured out, the fact remains that not a single liquidator or liberal can point to any reformist way out of the situatio.     The condition of the mass of the population in Russia, the aggravation of their position owing to the new agrarian policy (to which the feudal landowners had to snatch at as their last means of salvation), the international situation, and the nature of the general political crisis that has taken  page 223 shape in our country -- such is the sum-total of the objective conditions making Russia's situation a revolutionary one because of the impossibility of carrying out the tasks of a bourgeois revolution by following the present course and by the means available to the government and the exploiting classe
