PCOP4Cs bAlC Possibility VI 1lU1l-
peaceful Transition to socialism
should be borne In mind.
Transition Stages Needed
While the principal inevitable
processes of the socialist revo-
luton are common to all coun-
tries, the diversity of the ma
tional peculiarities and tradi.
tionS that have risen in the
course Of history creates spe.
lcific conditions for the reyolu-
tionary process and for the va
riety Of forms and rates of the
proletariat's advent to power.
This predetermines the pos
sibility and necessity. In a num-
Der Of countries, Of transition
stages in the struggle for the
dictatorship Of the proletariat,
and a variety of forms of po-
litical organization of the So
ciety building socialism.
But the transition from capt.
talism to socialism can come
about only through revolution.
However varied the forms Of a
new peoples state power in the
period of socialist construction,
their essence will be the same:
dictatorship of the proletariat.
Revisionism, rightist oppor-
tuniSrn, which is a reflection Of
bourgeois influence, is the chief
danger within the Communist
movement today.
The theology of revisioniSm is
most fully embodied in the
program Of the League of Com
munists of Yugoslavia.
Familiar Terms Repeated
Another danger is dogma
tiSln and secretarianism. which
cannot be reconciled with a
creative development Of revo-
lutionary theory.
The nationalism of an op-
pressed nation contains a gen.
eral democratic element di-
rected against oppression. and
Communists support it because
they consider it historically
justified at a given stage.
The joining Of the efforts OF
the newly free peoples and of
the peoples of the socialist
countries in the struggle
against the war danger is a
major factor for world peace.
The CPSU considers fra
ternal alliance with the peo-
Piles who have thrown off CO.
lonial or semi-colonial tyranny
to be a cornerstone of its in
ternational policy.
A grim struggle is going on
between two ideologies-Com-
munist and bourgeois-in the
world today. The new historic
epoch has brought the revolu-
tionary world outlook of the
proletariat a genuine triumph.
Bourgeois theology is experience
ing a grave crisis.
Anti Communism Scored
The chief theological and po-
litical weapon of imperialism
is anti-communism. Rallied to
this black banner today are all
the enemies of social progress.
Anti-communiSm is a reflec-
ton of the extreme decadence
of bourgeois theology.
Monopoly capital engenders
fascist theology, the theology Of
extreme chauvinism and rae
ism. Anti-communiSm is be-
coming the main instrument Of
reaction in its struggle against
the democratic forces of Asia,
Africa and Latin America.
The right-wing of social
democracy has completely
broken with Marxism and has
put forward so-called demo-
cratic socialism against scien-
tific socialism.
Historical experience has
shown the bankruptcy of both
the theology and the policy of
social democracy.
Anti-communism has brought
social reformism to an ideo-
logical and political impasse.
This is one of the main reasons
for the crisis of social-democ-
racy.
To abolish war and establish
everlasting peace on earth is a
historical mission of comrnun-
ism.
Would Ward Off A-War
The important thing is to
ward off a thermonuclear war.
not to let it break out. This
can be done by the present gen.
Grafton.
Peaceful co-existence implies
remuneration of war as a means
