A landmark work in the history of the Russian Revolution, The Bolsheviks & Workers' Control: 1917 to 1921 chronicles the critical struggle between the Bolshevik party and the nascent workers' control movement in the years immediately following the October Revolution. Published by the libertarian socialist group Solidarity, the text argues that the Bolsheviks systematically dismantled genuine workers' self-management in factories and workplaces, replacing it with top-down state control and party bureaucracy. Drawing on historical records from the period, it presents a sharp critique of Leninist politics and details how revolutionary promise was subordinated to party authority. Written from an anarchist and council communist perspective, the work remains an essential reference for anyone studying the contradictions at the heart of the early Soviet state.
