DESCRIPTIONTHIS work, published at the end of 1918, was written after the appearance of Karl Kautsky’s pamphlet, The Dictatorship of the Proletariat, in which Kautsky criticises Lenin’s State and Revolution and repeatedly reveals himself as an opponent of proletarian revolution and as an open counter-revolutionist. In The Proletarian Revolution and Renegade Kautsky, Lenin devotes himself chiefly to exposing Kautsky’s distortions and vulgarisations of the Marxist teachings on the state, proletarian revolution and proletarian dictatorship, and to the defence of the Russian proletarian revolution. In his pitiless criticism of Kautsky, in his exposure of the counter-revolutionary content of Kautskyism, and in his analysis of the experiences of the Russian Revolution, Lenin develops further his basic exposition contained in State and Revolution. In the present work Lenin pays special attention to the question of bourgeois and proletarian democracy, discussing this question on the basis of the class relationships in the proletarian revolution. Kautsky wrote his pamphlet when a revolutionary situation was developing swiftly in Germany. Under such conditions, and in view of the illusions still prevailing among the broad sections of. the working class with regard to the Social-Democracy and especially Kautsky, the substitution by the latter of the idea of “pure” democracy, i.e., bourgeois democracy, for the idea of proletarian dictatorship in the teachings of Marx, had the direct aim of diverting the attention of the proletariat from the struggle for the overthrow of the bourgeoisie, from the necessity for the establishment of its class dictatorship. |
