This 1935 edition of Vladimir Lenin’s "One Step Forward, Two Steps Back" represents a crucial ideological publication issued by the Party Publishing House during the mid-1930s. The text provides a deep dive into the internal logic of the Second Congress of the RSDLP, including the arrangement of the organizational principles that led to the historic split between the Bolsheviks and Mensheviks. Written in 1904, this work serves as a vital primary source for understanding Lenin’s theory of the party as a disciplined, vanguard organization. By 1935, as part of the "Lenin’s Library" series, this volume was used to standardize the historical narrative of the party’s development, documenting the exact period when the CC of the AUCP(b) was consolidating political education across the Soviet Union.
