ST los bolcheviques conservan
todavfa el poder; Sc debe princi-
palmente a que han sabido atraer
Sc las simpatfas populares. Han
sabido comprender sagazmente
Ia mentalidad simple de las ma
sas, y Sc han servido de esta pa
ra sus fines politicos.
IComo es esta mentalidad ? Es
interesante estudiarla, porque su
examen nos ayudara seguramen-
te a comprender ell secreto de la
infuencia que ejercen los bolche-
viques en- el pueblo ruso.
La question agraria ha sido
siempre en- Russia la causa de los
confictos mas agudos. La pa
labra clave de estos con1ictos
era Ella terra para el pueblo p
La TERRA era la religion del
campesino, Ell objeto de su aspi-
|raci6n mas ardiente.
va en- los siglos XVII v XVIII
aparecen dos precursores de Lee
nine: "Stenka Rain" y "Puga-
chof", hombres iletrados, sin cul-
tura ninguna, verdaderos hijos
del pueblo, que consiguieron lie
var a los campesinos a una lucha
implacable contra todas las au-
toridades; la palabra de guerra
era entonces ''Tierra y libertad. "
Aquel movimiento fue ahoga-
do en- sangre; pero Rain y Pu-
gachof viven perpetuamente en-
la memoria del pueblo ruso como
martires de la causa comun, con
el renombre solo conferido a los
heroes nacionales.

so de los dos ditimes siglos, or

VISA referida de "Tierra y liber-

prendente la ''revolucion social

Russia a la zaga de los paises ci-

ellos de realizar ell socialismo".
Esta precision le da derecho a
ser considerable como precursor
! del bolchevismo.
Fundaba entonces sus espe-
ranzas en- Ia "Obchtina", CO.

Russia Sc pierde en- los siglos.
La "Obchtina" es la propiedad

Egozaba de gran autoridad entire
los campesinos, y numerosos So
Icialistas (por ejenplo, los socia-
llistas revolucionarios Y los labo-
ristas que acaudilla Kerensky)
ven en- ella una escuela de socia-
lismo y como un germen abrevia-
do del future Estado colectivis-
ia.
Chernichervsky crefa que Ell
pueblo ruso, gracias a los ipstin-
Etos socialistas de su poblaci6n
rural, y gracias tambien al ejem-
plo vivo de la 'Obchtina", podrfa
ilegar al socialismo sin haber pa

Tolstoi tenia la misma religion
de la terra. A pesar de la gran
distancia que les separa, Tolstoi
puede ser considerable como ell
discfpulo del gran escritor ruso.
Tolstoi, que viva entire los cam
pesinos y participate de sus as
piraciones sociales, era un par
Itidario fanatico del socialismo
agrario. Protestaba con todo Ell
fmpetu de su genio contra la pro-
piedad de la TERRA.
''El Gobierno y la clase direc-

Los Origenes del Bolchevikismo
.Sus precursors Cernichewsky y Tolstoy

como poseer esclavos: por el con-
trario, vemos constantemente
hombres que alardean de cultu-
Ira, arist6cratas refnados de In
glaterra, Austria, Prussia y Ru-
sia, que no solamente usan de es-
te derecho cruel e indigno sin ru-
Dor, sino que todavfa 10 exhiben
con ergullo."
Tolstoi era un comunista con-
vencido, especialmente en- 10 con-
cerniente a la propiedad de la
terra. En- este era un precur-
sor de los bolcheviques, que re-
cientemente han tornado tam
I bien el nombre de -comunistas.

Der empleado algunas maximas
favoritas de Tolstoi, basadas en-
un profundo convencimiento de
/ la psicologfa popular. Han COM
prendido que en- un pals labrador
por excelencia scomo Russia era
necesario, para mantenerse en- el
Poder, ganarse la simpatfa del
"mujik", y desde el primer dfa
marchan resueltamente al en-
cuentro del socialismo historico,
excitandoles a una guerra impla-
cable contra los propietarios e in
lcitandoles a satisfacer con plena
llibertad sus seculares aspiracio-
mes agrarias.
Incluso los 'Soviets" que los
bolcheviques introducen en- los
distritos rurales responder per-
fectamente a los deseos y a las
tradiciones de los campesinos.

campesinos la consagraci6n de
isus promesas seculares.
ST es verdad que cada pueblo

la del pueblo ruso es la liberaci6n
| de la terra.
Serfa muy azaroso, sin embar-
go, predecir que los campesinos
puedan ser un apoyo SECURE, y
mas que SECURE constante, para
los bolcheviques: cuando el "mu-
ijik" haya realizado su antique
sueno, volvera probablemente Ia
