Bolshevik tactics of boycotting the State duma in 1905
Abstract
During the first Russian Revolution of 1905-1907, the working class of Russia, acting under the leadership of the Bolsheviks as the leader of all democratic forces, applied a variety of tactical forms and methods of political struggle against tsarism and the bourgeoisie. The tactics of the Bolsheviks were aimed at ensuring the main strategic goal - the overthrow of tsarism by the united forces of workers and peasants, the establishment of the revolutionary-democratic dictatorship of the proletariat and peasantry, the achievement of the complete victory of the bourgeois-democratic revolution and its development into a socialist revolution. The strategic plan of this stage of the revolution also included striking a blow to the liberal-monarchical bourgeoisie in order to isolate it from influencing the course and outcome of the revolution.
