R evolution is an open measurement of strength between social forces in a struggle for power.
The State is not an end in itself. It is only a machine in the hands of the dominating social forces. Like every machine it has its motor, transmitting and executive mechanism. Finally, the executive mechanism is the administration, with its police, the courts, with their prisons, and the army. The State is not an end in itself, but is a tremendous means for organizing, disorganizing and reorganizing social relations.
