Independence is the Key to Political Action
The importance of independent working-class political action stands out as a crucial theme in Lenin's influential 11-page document, which he memorized and frequently cited. This document emphasizes that the working class must maintain its independence from both bourgeois and petty-bourgeois influences, advocating for the establishment of its own political party. The document serves as a self-criticism of the Communist League's past decision to suspend its activities and merge with the broader democratic movement, labeling this approach as a misstep. Instead, it argues for a relationship with the democratic movement as allies, asserting that only through possessing its own political structure can the working class effectively engage with larger political movements.
