Abstract

The unprecedented transition to communism that marked the history of the Russian Revolution of 1917 forced its theoretical leaders to solve the task of conceiving and successfully carrying out this transition. Lenin was, without a doubt, the one who came closest to unveiling this process, in dispute with the majority of the theorists, although he still bore the weight of misunderstanding the theory of socialist revolution, rooted in Lassallean thought, which has nothing to do with Marx. Lenin's theory of state capitalism clearly demonstrates the richness of his thinking, as it reveals the necessary communist foundation of the transition and the essential and mandatory elements for a transition that remains faithful to the task of emancipating the workers.
