Sorry comrades. I sent 3.0 instead of 4.5. There is a real difference in the first paragraph. Here is why I would rather get to 6.0 before a complete draft is sent out Soviet Union I (establishment and problems for Marxism) >From 1917 to 1922, the predecessor to the Soviet Union was the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR), which was an independent state as were other Soviet republics at the time. This federation of states somewhat resembled America before the Civil War defeated the doctrine and practice of state rights and established federal authority as supreme. The Soviet Union was officially established in December 1922. The USSR grew to contain 15 constituent or "union republics" by 1956: As the largest and oldest constitutional communist-led socialist state, the Soviet Union became the primary model of an industrial economy without capitalist ownership of means of production. . Before the Soviet Revolution most Marxists held the theory position that the development of the productive forces incompatible with the bourgeoisie - an industrial economy with private property relations, would create the conditions for the communist revolution. This Marxist proposition was consistent with everything Marx had written on the law of social revolution. The Russian revolution occurred in Russia, where the productive forces was incompatible with the feudal system, within a world environment of capitalist production and bourgeois rule. Communists world wide relied and counted upon the workers in the advanced country to ushered in economic communism. (http://www.papercut.biz/emailStripper.htm)
