And the Stuttgart resolution—as Kautsky rightly observed and as anyone who takes the trouble to read it carefully will see—*puts an end to recognition of the “neutrality” principle*. There is not a word in it about neutrality or non-party principles. On the contrary, *it definitely recognises the need for closer and stronger connections between the unions and the socialist parties. *
The resolution of the London R.S.D:L.P. Congress on the trade unions has thus been placed on a firm theoretical basis in the form of the Stuttgart resolution. *The Stuttgart resolution lays down the general principle that. in every country the unions must be brought into permanent and close contact with the socialist party.* The London resolution says that in Russia this should take the form, under favourable conditions, *of party unions, and party members must work towards that goal.* We note that *the harmful aspects of the neutrality principle were revealed in Stuttgart by the fact that the trade-union half of the German delegation were the most adamant supporters of opportunist views.* That is why in Essen, for example, the Germans were against Van Kol (the trade unions were not represented in Essen, which was a Congress solely of the Party), while in Stuttgart they supported him. *By playing into the hands of the opportunists in the Social-Democratic movement the advocacy of neutrality in Germany has **actually* *had harmful results. *This is a fact that should not be overlooked, especially in Russia, where the bourgeois-democratic counsellors of the proletariat, who urge it to keep the trade-union movement “neutral”, are so numerous.
