Excerpt from The Workers Opposition in RussiaThe failure of the Bolshevik party to solve the social problem and the failure of the author of this book to prove that it could have been solved by the same political party if they only had adopted the tactics suggested by the Opposition, these two facts taken together, should, in our opinion, be sufficient to remove for a long time to come the notion that a few leaders can emancipate the workers from their desks in government buildings.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
