In the 1920s, they called themselves the <a href="/wiki/Left_Opposition" title="Left Opposition">Left Opposition</a>, although today's <a href="/wiki/Left_communism" title="Left communism">left communism</a> is distinct and usually non-Bolshevik. The terminological disagreement can be confusing because different versions of a <a href="/wiki/Left%E2%80%93right_politics" class="mw-redirect" title="Left–right politics">left-right political spectrum</a> are used. <a href="/wiki/Anti-Revisionism" class="mw-redirect" title="Anti-Revisionism">Anti-revisionists</a> consider themselves the ultimate leftists on a spectrum from communism on the left to imperialist capitalism on the right. However, given that <a href="/wiki/Stalinism" title="Stalinism">Stalinism</a> is often labelled rightist within the communist spectrum and <a href="/wiki/Left_communism" title="Left communism">left communism</a> leftist, anti-revisionists' idea of the left is very different from that of left communism. Despite being Bolshevik-Leninist comrades during the <a href="/wiki/Russian_Revolution" title="Russian Revolution">Russian Revolution</a> and <a href="/wiki/Russian_Civil_War" title="Russian Civil War">Russian Civil War</a>, Trotsky and Stalin became enemies in the 1920s and, after that, opposed the legitimacy of each other's forms of Leninism.

According to this position, a socialist revolution could not occur in a backward, feudal country such as early 20th-century Russia when it had such a small and almost powerless capitalist class. In 1905, Trotsky formulated his theory of <a href="/wiki/Permanent_revolution" title="Permanent revolution">permanent revolution</a>, which later became a defining characteristic of Trotskyism. </p><p>The theory of permanent revolution addressed how such feudal regimes were to be overthrown and how socialism could establish itself, given the lack of economic prerequisites. Trotsky argued that only the working class could overthrow feudalism and win the <a href="/wiki/Peasant" title="Peasant">peasantry</a>'s support in Russia. Furthermore, he argued that the Russian working class would not stop there. They would win their revolution against the weak capitalist class, establish a workers' state in Russia and appeal to the working class in the advanced capitalist countries worldwide. As a result, the global working class would come to Russia's aid, and socialism could develop worldwide. </p><p>According to political scientist Baruch Knei-Paz, Trotsky’s theory of “permanent revolution” was grossly misrepresented by Stalin as <a href="/wiki/Defeatism" title="Defeatism">defeatist</a> and adventurist during the succession struggle when in fact Trotsky encouraged revolutions in Europe but was not at any time proposing “reckless confrontations” with the capitalist world.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEKnei-Paz1978343_45-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKnei-Paz1978343-45"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>44<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Capitalist_or_bourgeois-democratic_revolution">Capitalist or bourgeois-democratic revolution</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Trotskyism&amp;action=edit&amp;section=3" title="Edit section: Capitalist or bourgeois-democratic revolution"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Revolutions in Britain in the 17th century and in France in 1789 abolished feudalism and established the essential requisites for the development of capitalism.

However much one may compare the Russian Revolution with the Great French Revolution, the former can never be transformed into a repetition of the latter."<sup id="cite_ref-46" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-46"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>45<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> In the <a href="/wiki/French_Revolution_of_1789" class="mw-redirect" title="French Revolution of 1789">French Revolution of 1789</a>, France experienced what Marxists called a "<a href="/wiki/Bourgeois-democratic_revolution" class="mw-redirect" title="Bourgeois-democratic revolution">bourgeois-democratic revolution</a>"—a regime was established wherein the bourgeoisie overthrew the existing French feudalistic system. The bourgeoisie then moved towards establishing a regime of democratic parliamentary institutions. However, while democratic rights were extended to the bourgeoisie, they were not generally extended to a universal franchise. The freedom for workers to organize unions or to strike was not achieved without considerable struggle. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Passivity_of_the_bourgeoisie">Passivity of the bourgeoisie</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Trotskyism&amp;action=edit&amp;section=4" title="Edit section: Passivity of the bourgeoisie"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Trotsky argues that countries like Russia had no "enlightened, active" revolutionary <a href="/wiki/Bourgeoisie" title="Bourgeoisie">bourgeoisie</a> which could play the same role, and the working class constituted a tiny minority. By the time of the European revolutions of 1848, "the bourgeoisie was already unable to play a comparable role. It did not want and was not able to undertake the revolutionary liquidation of the social system that stood in its path to power." </p><p>The theory of permanent revolution considers that in many countries that are thought under Trotskyism to have not yet completed a bourgeois-democratic revolution, the capitalist class opposes the creation of any revolutionary situation. They fear stirring the working class into fighting for its revolutionary aspirations against their exploitation by capitalism. In Russia, the working class, although a small minority in a predominantly peasant-based society, was organised in vast factories owned by the capitalist class and into large working-class districts. During the Russian Revolution of 1905, the capitalist class found it necessary to ally with reactionary elements such as the essentially feudal landlords and, ultimately, the existing Czarist Russian state forces. This was to protect their ownership of their property—factories, banks, etc.—from expropriation by the revolutionary working class. </p><p>Therefore, according to the theory of permanent revolution, the capitalist classes of economically backward countries are weak and incapable of carrying through revolutionary change. As a result, they are linked to and rely on the feudal landowners in many ways. Thus, Trotsky argues that because a majority of the branches of industry in Russia originated under the direct influence of government measures—sometimes with the help of government subsidies—the capitalist class was again tied to the ruling elite. The capitalist class was subservient to European capital.<sup id="cite_ref-47" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-47"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>46<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="The_incapability_of_the_peasantry">The incapability of the peasantry</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Trotskyism&amp;action=edit&amp;section=5" title="Edit section: The incapability of the peasantry"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The theory of permanent revolution further considers that the <a href="/wiki/Peasantry" class="mw-redirect" title="Peasantry">peasantry</a> as a whole cannot take on the task of carrying through the revolution because it is dispersed in small holdings throughout the country and forms a heterogeneous grouping, including the rich peasants who employ rural workers and aspire to <a href="/wiki/Landlord" title="Landlord">landlordism</a> as well as the poor peasants who aspire to own more land.

However, even the most orthodox tend to recognise in the late twentieth century a new development in the revolts of the rural poor: the self-organising struggles of the landless, along with many other struggles that in some ways reflect the militant united, organised struggles of the working class, which to various degrees do not bear the marks of class divisions typical of the heroic peasant struggles of previous epochs. However, orthodox Trotskyists today still argue that the town- and city-based working-class struggle is central to the task of a successful socialist revolution linked to these struggles of the rural poor. They argue that the working class learns of the necessity to conduct a collective struggle, for instance, in trade unions, arising from its social conditions in the factories and workplaces; and that the collective consciousness it achieves as a result is an essential ingredient of the socialist reconstruction of society.<sup id="cite_ref-49" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-49"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>48<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p> Trotsky himself argued that only the <a href="/wiki/Proletariat" title="Proletariat">proletariat</a> or working class were capable of achieving the tasks of that bourgeois revolution. In 1905, the working class in Russia, a generation brought together in vast factories from the relative isolation of peasant life, saw the result of its labour as a vast collective effort, also seeing the only means of struggling against its oppression in terms of a collective effort, forming workers councils (<a href="/wiki/Soviet_(council)" title="Soviet (council)">soviets</a>) in the course of the revolution of that year.

"Trotsky argues that the Soviet Union was, at that time, a "deformed workers' state" or degenerated workers' state, and not a socialist republic or state, because the "bureaucracy wrested the power from the hands of mass organizations," thereby necessitating only political revolution rather than a completely new social revolution, for workers' political control (i.e. state democracy) to be reclaimed. He argued that it remained, at base, a workers' state because the capitalists and landlords had been expropriated".
