The First Phase of World Revolution

Thus, the revolutionary process
in the colonies which IS drawing
the overwhelming majority of the
population into the fight against
imperialism is also the expression
of the profound general crisis of
capitalism.
Finally, the revolutionary crisis is
inevitably maturing in the very cen
tiers of imperialism-the bourgeois
attack on the standard of living,
the organizations and the political
rights Of the working class rouses
growing resistance on the part of
the broad masses Of the proletariat
and causes the class struggle be-
tween the working class and trusti-
fled capital to become more acute.
The great battles between labor and
capital in Great Britain (the gen
eral strike in 1920, in Germany
and in the United States of Amer
lea, the accelerated swing to the left
of the masses, the growth of the in
fluence and authority Of the Com
munist parties, the enormous growth
of sympathy Of the broad masses Of
workers towards the land Of the
proleta1ian distatorship-all this is
clear indication that the revolu-
tionary tide is again rising in the
center of imperialism.

brought about primarily by the

fact that Communist parties had

THE PROGRAMME COMMISSION OF THE
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE
COMMUNIST INTERNA TTONA

The imperialist struggle among
the largest capitalist states fer the
Redistribution of the globe led to
the first World Imperialist War
O914-1918). This war shook the
whole system of world capitalism
and marked the beginning of the
period of its general crisis. 1t bent
to its service the whole of tho ma
t1onal economy of the belligerent
countries, thus creating the mailed
fist of state capitalism. It increased
sunproductive expenditure to enor-
nous dimensions, destroyed enor-
nous quantities of means of pro-
duction and human labor power,
ruined large masses of the popula-
ton and imposed incalculable bur-
dens upon the industrial workers,
the peasants and the colonial peo-
pies. The war inevitably led to an
intensification of the class struggle
which grew into revolutionary mass
action and civil war. The imperial
list front was preached at its weak
est link. in Czarist Russia. The
FEBRUARY revolution of 1917
overthrow the domination of the big
landlord autocracy. The October"
revolution overthrow the domination
of the .bourgeoisie. This victorious
rroletarian revolution appropriated
the expropriators, took the means
Of production from the landlords
and the capitalists and for the first
time in human history set up and
consolidated the dictatorship of the
proletariat in an enormous country,
brought into being a new Soviet
type of state and laid the founda-
tions for the International Proleta-
rian Revolution.
The powerful shock to which the
whole world of capitalism was sub
jected, the intensification of the
class struggle and the direct influ-
ence Of the October proletarian rev.
olution gave rise to series of revo-
lutionary actions on the continent
Of Europe as well as in the colonial
and semi-colonial countries: March,
1918, the workers revolution in Fin
land; August, 1918, the "rice riots"
in Japan; November, 1918, revolu-
tons in Austria and Germany which
overthrow the rule of the semi
feudal monarchies; March, 1919, the
2'roletarian revolution in Hungary
and the rebellion in Korea; April,
1919, the establishment of the So
Wet government in Bavaria; Janu-
airy, 1920, the bourgeois national

II. The General Crisis. of Capitalism.

At the same time fascism strives
to permeate the working class. 1t
recruits the most backward strata
of the workers and turns their dis
content with the passivity Of social
democracy to it's own advantage
The principal function of fascism is
to destroy the revolutionary labor
vanguard, i. e. the Communist units
and the leaders of the proletariat
The combination of social demagogy,
corruption and active white terror
conducted simultaneously with ex-
IRENE imperialist aggression in the
sphere of foreign politics, is chars
acteristic feature of fascism. In
the periods most critical for the
bourgeoisie, fascism, to suit its own
ends, gave utterance to anti-capi-
talist phraseology. When it had
strongly established itself at the
helm of state it cast aside its anti
capitalist rattle and is now more
and more revealing itself as the
terroristic dictatorship of big CAPT
tai (Mussolini, PilsudskD.
The bougeoisie resorts alternately
to the methods of fascism or to the
method of coalition with social
democracy. according to the changes
in the political situation. In this,
social democracy not ipfrequently
plays an openly fascist role (Noske
in Germany, the Polish Socialist
Party, etc.). Both these methods
are unusual for normal CAPT
talism; they are symptoms of the
general capitalist crisis. Neverthe-
less, they retard the rate of advance
of revolution.
The experience of the whole of
the historical postwar period has
shown however, that the stabiliza-
ton of capitalism obtained by acts
of repression against the working
class and the systematic depression
of it's standard of living cannot but
be partial, temporary and decay
ing sterilization. This sterilization
gives rise to new and more pro
found contradictions which cause the
general crisis of capitalism to be-
come more acute and create the con
ditions for a new phase in the world
proletarian revolution.
AS result of the first round of
imperialist wars (the world war of
1914-1918) and of the October vic
tory of the working class in the for
mer empire of the Russian Gar.
world economy has split up into two
fundamentally hostile camps: The
camp of the imperialist states and
the camp of the dictatorship of the
proletariat in the United Socialist
Soviet Russia. The differences ir
class structure and the class char
acter of the two states, the funda-
mental differences in the aims each
pursues Elm internal, foreign, econ
on1ic and cultural policy, the
fundamental difference in the direc-
ton of development of the two
camps, brings the capitalist world
into sharp conflict with the victori-
Gus proletarian state. Two antagon-
istic systems are in conflict within
the framework Of a single world
economy: the system of capitalism
and the system of socialism. Hither-
to, the class struggle was conducted
in forms determined by the fact that
the proletariat was not in possession
of state power. Now it is being
conducted on an enormous and really
world scale and moreover the work
ing class now has it's own state

tional proletariat. The existence of
the Soviet Union and the influence
it exercises upon the masses of the
toilers and oppressed all over the
world is in itself the most striking
expression Of the profound crisis of
the world capitalist system and of
thes expansion and intensification of
the class struggle to a degree hither-
to unparalleled in history.
The capitalist world, powerless to
eliminate it's inherent contradictions
is striving to set up an international
organization (the League of Ma
tions) the main purpose of which is
to restrain the surging tide of the
revolutionary crisis and to strangle
the Soviet proletarian republics by
blockade or war. On the other hand
all the forces of the revolutionary
proletariat and of the oppressed
colonial masses are rallying around
the Union of Socialist Soviet Repub-
lies. The unstable, internally COR
roding, but well armed coalition of
capital is confronted by single,
world coalition of labor.
Thus, as a result of the first round
of imperialist wars new fundamental
antagonisms have arisen of world
historical scale and significance:
the antagonisms between the Union
of Socialists Soviet Republics and
the capitalist world.
Meanwhile, the antagonists with
in the capitalist sector Of world
economy have become more acute
The economic centre of the world
has shifted to the United States of
America; the "dollar republic" has
become the exploiter of all countries
and this has caused the relations
between United States and European
capitalism, primarily British CAPT
talism, to become more acute. The
conflict between Great Britain, the
most powerful of the old conserva-
tive imperialist countries, and the
United States, the greatest of the
young imperialist countries and
which has already won world hege-
mony for itself, is becoming the
pivot in the world conflicts of finance
capital states. Germany, though
plundered by the Versailles peace
is now economically recovered and is
again taking the path of imperialist
politics. Once again she stands out
as serious competitor of Great
Britain and France on the world
market. The Pacific is becoming
involved in a tangle of contradic-
tions caused principally by the con-
flict between America and Japan
simultaneously the antagonism of
interests between the constantly
changing and unstable groupings of
powers is developing, while the
second-class powers act as auxiliary
Instruments in the hands of the i'm
perialist giants and their coalitions.
The productive capacity of the in
dustrial apparatus of world CAPT
talism has been increa d 4.
simultaneously the home markets in
Europe have become restricted as a
result of the war and of the Soviet
Union dropping out of the sphere
of purely capitalist circulation. This
and the close monopoly of the prin-
cipal sources of raw materials and
fuel have caused the conflicts be-
tween capitalist states to become
wider. The peaceful struggle for
oil, rubber, cotton, coal and metals.
the struggle for redistribution of
markets and spheres for the export
of capital are inexorably leading to
