Abstract

A few months ago, it was the 100th anniversary of the Russian Revolution, which marked the opening to the construction of a socialist society in the most backward country in Europe, such as Tsarist Russia, a state in the process of transition to capitalism with very marked feudal characteristics. We socialist militants who demand this process have a frank admiration for the leading group of the revolution, especially one or the other of the Lenin-Trotsky duo. However, this article does not intend to open up the debate on the process that brought the Bolsheviks to power between 1905 and 1917, with a detailed description of each of the processes that crossed the road to the revolution and from there extract a manual of action. Nor are we interested in making a “tribute”, a simple contemplative gaze that highlights the exceptionality of the past. The reason for this article is to put on the table the revolutionary efficiency of the Bolshevik party and to ask ourselves about the socialist revolution in Argentina, rather than the simple conservative commemoration of what happened.
