On the Correlation of Economic and Political Struggle in the Activity of Factory and Factory Committees of Petrograd (from February to October, 1917)

Abstract

The revolutionary process initiated by the Great October Socialist Revolution continues to develop in the capitalist countries. In the course of the class struggle, the workers are putting forward socio-economic demands far beyond concrete material needs. The main enemy of the working class is the capitalist monopolies. Therefore, the main demands of the working class are aimed at limiting their arbitrariness, to undermine their economic positions. First of all, the demand to give trade unions the right to participate in controlling the activities of enterprises, which makes it possible to restrain the monopolies in their pursuit of profits. Along with this, the political struggle is intensifying.
