| | The Lithuanian Social Democratic Party and the Revolution of 1905 - Dalius Vasys |
 | | Between 1900 and 1905 the LSDP had been the preeminent party in Lithuania, but after 1905 its competitors gained strength rapidly and this was reflected in the results of the elections of the Constituent Assembly of 1920 when the LSDP managed to win only thirteen out of one hundred and twelve seats. |  | | Thus, while in the Great Assembly of Vilnius the LSDP identified itself completely with the position of the Lithuanian nationalists, in 1906 it changed its name from the Lithuanian Social Democratic Party to the Social Democratic Party of Lithuania in order to stress its territorial rather than national character. |  | | The party, furthermore, promised to guarantee the national and religious rights of minorities in Lithuania. |

| | Bolsheviks and War [Sam Marcy -- 1985]: 3. Lenin's response to the war |
 | | Lenin was a leading activist on the highest level of the Second International, as anyone can easily see who has read his evaluation of the international socialist congress in Stuttgart, as well as his comments on the Basel congress. |  | | He then went on to analyze the existence of an opportunist current and explained how the congress defeated the Dutch delegates' opportunist formulation of the colonial question. |  | | For a brief spell he was so downcast that he thought of leaving politics altogether. |

 | | It was only after the Sharpeville Massacre, when the South African struggle entered a qualitative new development, that with the Soweto Massacre „Black Power“ transcended these ideological and „racial“ boundaries, and ushered in a new epoch of true international proletarianism, within the framework of guerilla struggle and socialist revolutionary praxis. |  | | The relevance of the above for the African Revolution within the context of World Revolution, Lenin had underlined when he stated: without revolutionary theory, no revolution. |  | | Hence while Lenin was still alive, South Africa had a communist party, which became a member of the Comintern. |

| | Brief history of left communism for Proletarian Tribune |
 | | The imperialist war of 1914 and the Russian revolution of 1917 both confirmed the marxist vision that capitalism would inevitably enter its "epoch of social revolution", and precipitated a fundamental split in the workers movement. |  | | But, to a large extent because Bolshevism had undermined its own role as a proletarian vanguard by fusing with the state, the most important left currents within the party tended to be led by lesser known figures who were able to remain closer to the class than to the state machine. |  | | It was the left wing currents who alone kept the banner of proletarian internationalism flying during the imperialist holocaust, who rallied to the defence of the proletarian revolution in Russia, and who led the strikes and uprisings which broke out in numerous countries in the wake of the war. |
