Heirs to self-destruct of the CPSU

 Communist Party and its successors Twenty years ago, November 6, 1991 decree of the President Boris Yeltsin of the RSFSR was closed Communist Party - Communist pariah Soviet Union. Its organizational structure was dissolved, its property - confiscated.The fact remains there is still alive is something of an ideological legacy of the Communist Party and the Communist Party is a successor of the current party in power, says Gleb Cherkasov, editor of the politics of the newspaper "Kommersant".
 - The Communist Party was the successor to the Communist Party?
 - No way! Communist Party of the RSFSR became heir, created in the 90th year. There is not even the territorial coincidence, but the fact that the Communist Party of Ivan Polozkov was originally in opposition. It was initially an attempt to counterbalance the team Yeltsin. Communist Party in the first second of his birth was also in opposition. She never really been able to touch the state resources. And this feeling that the party always in opposition, forming the consciousness of people who belong to this party. On the other hand, the Communist Party are increasingly people who see it as not so much a defense of communist ideals or national-patriotic rhetoric, and the only real opposition, which somehow can protect their votes. Due to this influx, the comparator more difficult to maintain internal unity, because it is very heterogeneous within. The entire cycle between elections Zyuganov tries to keep a certain balance. In this sense, of course, the Communist Party is not the heir to the Communist Party, although the Communist Party considers himself the heir, successor of the history and wrote that the party - "continuer of Lenin - Stalin."
 - And who then took the baton to the Communist Party? It should be understood that this "party of power"?

 - No, there are no heirs to the Communist Party line. And the fact that on the patterns of the CPSU are trying to build a "United Russia", it is not inheritance - an attempt to find lying on the ground some trappings of power and to adapt them to modern realities. In a sense, it is possible. Because a political career without membership in the "United Russia" is almost impossible. Either way, it is necessary to interact with this party. On the other hand, the "United Russia" had not yet had time to climb in all other areas of heritage so that, say, an academic career should have been done with the help of party membership card or artistic career would have been impossible without membership in the primary department of "United Russia". In this sense, of course, "United Russia" to the Communist Party is still very far away.
 - Now, 20 years, the traditional ideas of communism there in some living form? Do they have some sort of continuation?
 - If you look at the slogans with which they come to the 94th anniversary of the October Revolution - "Return the stolen homeland," "Defend Russian," "revive the friendship of peoples", "The Government of the capitalist ministers to resign" (it's their official slogan of the site ) - that is, of course, a reflection of what is the current ideology of the Communist Party. "Defend Russian," "revive the friendship of peoples" - is irrelevant to the communist idea has not. "The Government of the capitalist ministers to resign," "Return the stolen homeland" - is so wide a slogan underneath that can subscribe to anyone, including the "United Russia".
 - A slogan of "building of communism"?
 - No, this is long gone. This is, perhaps, only hidden somewhere deep enough in the program - as a distant goal.-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------Topic of the day "The current word» № 23 (73) JUNE 1991 *"Self-destruct" ... IN ORDER OF DISCIPLINEIn the socio-political center of the Party Committee held a scientific-practical conference "The Fate of ideology in modern society." At the conference, expected such "whales" ideology of perestroika, as Alexander Yakovlev, Georgy Shakhnazarov, etc. Despite their non arrive, the conference is definitely a success. We publish one of his speeches, which caused great interest among the participants and found that about ideology, it turns out, may also be interested in talking.Teacher of scientific socialism Sverdlovsk State Medical Institute, Valery Molchanov on the material of the CPSU in Sverdlovsk party organization analyzes the characteristic phenomenon of our time - the generation of anti-communism by the party structures.A year ago, Comrade B. Kadochnikov, who was then first secretary of the city committee, expressed his true thoughts on that in our city party organization that has 95 000 communists then, more than half are not working. If a majority of not working, then, from the standpoint of the theory of scientific socialism, we must strike a bell to raise the question of the social basis of the city of Sverdlovsk party organization.Began to remember, hitting a slide at the bell. Yes, the beat, especially when in the mid 80s there was a patriotic movement in the city of Sverdlovsk, the then leaders of the Party Committee of ideological created an alternative public forum, so-called "discussion platform", which was headed by Gennady E. Burbulis, all of which you Of course, you know.This "Discussion platform" as she could put down an informal patriotic movement in the city of Sverdlovsk, and made her the head deputy of the USSR.After Gennady E. advantage of the urban structure of the party, he parted with its official ideology, although the structure of communication remained.Then I remembered one of the meetings of the city, "Discussion platform" in DC "Ural", which was conducted by Gennady E., before he became a deputy. And then there during the debate on democratization in the city of Sverdlovsk, stood up and working, said:- Comrades, here you are gathered literate, intelligent, talking about democracy. I, too, for democracy, and I have to restructure! But help me understand what it is. I work in a factory. Before the restructuring, I received 250 rubles, and my boss - 350 rubles. There was the same alteration, and I started to receive 200 rubles, and the chief - 400rubley. So much for rebuilding, here's the Democrats!A characteristic of this reaction was, "Discussion platform", brainchild of city party committee: "We are serious issues here decide, and you're here with your questions." That is, for democracy, but without a job ...That is, in fact, comrades, is the ideological and political and social foundations of the city committee of the Communist Party with all the ensuing consequences. This is the basis of its ideological structures.The question arises whether changed something in the last few years? - No, nothing has changed. Just old ideological frames of such change to the "new" ideological frames of the same kind.Realized if the problem is that for all variants of restructuring the party in the city of Sverdlovsk, does not represent the interests of the working class? No, not understood. The situation is that the ideologists of the city party organization actively involved in the campaign for planting the ideology of human values ​​at the expense of working class ideology.What does this lead? I myself live in Ordzhonikidze district and over the past several years, actively involved in the lives of two large groups: Turbine Plant and Uralmashzavod. The fact is that somewhere in the 1987-1988 period in these teams made out positive social and political processes. Shaped by the ideology of adjustment there, on the basis of proletarian values. Informal organizations emerged: club "Worker" Turbine Plant and the "Discussion platform" Uralmashzavod. There the workers democratically minded intellectuals raised the issue of restructuring with the workers of these factories.What was the reaction of the party? And Turbine Plant, and the reaction was Uralmashzavod is: "Why without the permission of his superiors?" We ask: "What the authorities?" - "We'll see."City Party Committee sends its representatives to talk about anything, but not about the problems that have matured in these bands. It comes to what is representative of the Party Committee Oslopovskih literally booed and suggested that there will no longer appear.Unfortunately, this hypnosis yielded Uralmashzavod party committee, and that we have out there today? A referendum of the labor collective of the plant, the result - the requirement to leave the party committee of the plant.... Process with Party Committee Uralmashzavod preceded by a lengthy meeting of the staff. More than a thousand people have rested on her question - what is public property? More than a thousand people have been studying the theory and found that there is no one to explain to them what the public property and how it differs from the public and private property.And while proponents of this movement antipartkomovskogo offered them to deal with public property, people supported them. But as soon as they said, "Let us enter private property" - people thinking. Triggering of the instinct that demanded recognition. Help this instinct conscious of itself was none.My colleague made in original factory newspaper, which gave her an understanding of what is public property. In short, this is state property, which the administration of private property ownership is given into the workforce. Legally, this is reflected in the fact that no administration of the personnel hiring, and labor collective in the face of their collective bodies, such as TCS, etc. hired as the collective administration of their collective will of the artist. When people get an answer, all the switches in a constructive direction. They then say: "So, the problem is not that we devoured public property, and that it was not yet!"And then the question arises: what is the party committee?A party committee said that she was with us ...No matter how the facts relate to the removal of party committees in enterprises, but in view of the foregoing, it must be noted that this operation is carried out in order of party discipline. Well, the destruction of the party in the manner of party discipline is ... an organized anti-communism. Thus, in the party today is organized anti-communism, and not something else. It is anti-ideological support. We can identify three of its kind.There are anti-communism of the former theorists of scientific communism, who yesterday wrote the Communist pamphlets. This is one form of anti-communism, the most frivolous, but at the level of party structures most effective.There are other anti-communism - such as N. Travkin and Boris Yeltsin. This anti-communism of the people who did it, dug like moles, but they were in the hands of the official party structures. Take N. Travkin. This is someone who is creative organized socialism. Why is he anti-communist today? Because of this, he got on his hands. Received from someone? From the party structures.I Travkina regard as a social phenomenon that is constantly growing. He began with the team leaders and quickly became, you know whom.To a certain level - the star of Hero of Socialist Labour to earn for himself - he is allowed. And when he raised the question that if we recognize these processes, it is necessary for them to change public attitudes - then he got on his hands.Travkin - a public figure, so his anti-Communism is psychologically understandable, although the content - an inadequate response to this circumstance. Therefore, to treat H. Travkin, for example, yesterday's communist theoretician Yuri Afanasiev in the same way - completely wrong. This anti-communism - a serious anti-communism and just blame it impossible for him to be treated with understanding, with self-criticism.The third type of anti-communism was noticed at the time comrade V. Kadochnikova when he said that a small part of the city party organization - workers, and others - intellectuals and officials. Thus he actually drew the social basis of modern anti-communism, which now organizes itself and outside the Communist Party.The social basis of anti-communism at the level of feelings, ideas and informal organizations today is the mood of the intelligentsia.And when we say that the party - is a conglomerate, when the intelligentsia "inject" their ideology in the labor movement, then, in terms of scientific Marxism, these people do not know what they say they think that they cite Lenin ...From the standpoint of practical politics, this means that if the party yesterday was the leader of intellectuals under the banner of communism, today it is and must remain there under any other leader of the flags that fit her.
