Description

In the paper, the author underscores, in contrast to frequent assertions, that during the first period heterogeneity - not homogeneity (known during its mature period) - was the characteristic of the Communist movement. Planned unification began by the "finding" of the Bolshevik leadership at the Second Congress of the Communist International (1920) that the full swing of the Communist movement is impeded by two obstacles: »centrist currents« and »leftist sectarianism« to which the position of the Communist International was not sufficiently revolutionary. By the expelling of the opposition the first period of conflict ended, the one where Bolshevism and leftist Communism confronted each other. Until then ideological conflicts were present throughout in the movement, whereas later they will have an ever more instrumental nature in faction fights, which are to come about in the Bolshevik Party; the result of these struggles determined the policy of the world Communist organization. By 1921 the second period commences, being the period of consolidation of the Communist movement, characterized by its "Russification.''

      • Avtor v prispevku poudarja, v nasprotju s pogostimi trditvami, da je bila značilnost komunističnega gibanja v prvem obdobju heterogenost in ne homogenost, ki je lastna obdobju njegove zrelosti. Načrtna unifikacija se je začela z »ugotovitvijo« boljševiškega vodstva na 2. kongresu KI (1920), da razmah komunističnega gibanja ovirata dve oviri - »centristične struje« in »levo sektaštvo«, kateremu pozicija KI ni dovolj revolucionarna. Z izključitvijo opozicije se je zaključilo tudi prvo obdobje spopada, v katerem sta se soočala boljševizem in levi komunizem. Če so bili dotlej v gibanju vseskozi opazni idejni spopadi, pa bodo odslej spopadi dobili vse bolj instrumentalizirano funkcijo v frakcijskih bojih, do katerih je prihajalo v boljševiški partiji; izid le-teh pa bo neposredno krojil politiko svetovne komunistične organizacije. Z letom 1921 se začne drugo obdobje, obdobje konsolidacijo komunističnega gibanja, zaznamovano z »rusifikacijo«.
