Dear All,
This is with reference to the article “The Working Class Strikes Back” by
Chris Wright.

(Link: https://www.academia.edu/37306144/The_Working_Class_Strikes_Back)

USSR and China were the two countries that passed through the revolution
and socialist rule prevailed there. Both the countries faced hard time
initially, achieved progress also and ultimately they had to bring some
compromise, somewhere in between capitalism and Socialism perhaps. I think
there must be impartial study and review in this matter i. e. where the
things went wrong. I have tried at my level and I put my views as follow,
Generally, if a fresh and impartial young person goes through the socialist
literature in books, articles, speeches and correspondences, he will surely
get one impression. If I narrate the impression in one sentence, it might
read as….,
“The capitalistic society is constituted in two tents named “bourgeois
tent” and “proletariat tent”. The bourgeois are the root cause of grief and
peril of this society. Proletariat should take over the rule of the society
in their hand and they should regulate and control the social system in
compliance with socialist policy and principles.”
Personally I am neither in favor of bourgeois nor opponent of proletariat,
I have studied the nature, choices and intentions of proletariat, they are
good people but they are not immune from capitalistic mind set. I do not
criticize them for that because it has to be that only. Likewise, bourgeois
are exploitative and moral less people but both (bourgeois and proletariat)
are product of social evolution.
It is the great mistake forefathers of socialism did and that is
exclusively concentrating on the above two tents. In fact reasons of social
peril lie elsewhere. Existence of two tents of bourgeois and proletariat is
the resultant product of social evolution. Even if proletariat successfully
take over the rule of a society in their hand, the fundamental reasons of
the root cause of the social peril still remains there. When socialism does
not have knowledge of these reasons, how they will be able to establish a
social structure that they dream.
Your views will support to arrive near to the fact finding.
With true regards,



Harshad Dave
