The October Revolution in Russia (November 7, 1917 - November 7, 2024) left many valuable lessons about gathering forces in the struggle for power, and those lessons still have application value in current revolutionary movements.
Solidarity between classes
The October Revolution was successful thanks to the unity of the working classes, especially the workers and peasants. The Bolshevik Party, under the leadership of Lenin, was clearly aware of the role of these forces in the revolution and the Party succeeded in combining the interests of the two classes.
With the workers, Lenin and the Bolshevik Party called on workers in the cities, especially in Petrograd and Moscow, to rise up against the Tsarist and capitalist regimes and seize power, which was also to defend their mastery. Workers were the vanguard in demonstrations, strikes and armed struggles in the revolutions in the cities.
Peasants also played a key role in the October Revolution. To rally the peasantry, the Bolshevik Party put forward the slogans of land reform, confiscating landlords' property and giving land to peasants. This policy attracted widespread support from the poor and middle peasants.
The Bolshevik Party not only focused on rallying the proletariat but also had strategic alliances with other progressive forces. Before the October Revolution, the Bolshevik Party had built relationships with political parties such as the Menshevik Party, the Socialist Revolutionary Party, and progressive intellectual groups.
The Bolshevik Party also skillfully united the forces in society under a common goal of overthrowing the Tsarist regime, eliminating oppression and injustice and building a just society. In particular, its connections with intellectual groups and small revolutionary parties helped the Bolshevik Party develop influence and widespread support among all social classes.
Appropriate application
The Vietnamese Revolution has been applying many valuable lessons from the Russian October Revolution. In the current period, the lesson of gathering forces and components is the key factor to build strength for the revolution, especially combining and protecting the interests of the working classes in society.
In particular, the great national unity, the issue identified as the strategic line of our Party, the decisive factor for the victory of the cause of building and defending the Fatherland in all periods, has been generalized into the thesis "promoting the tradition of great national unity, building our country to be increasingly rich, civilized, and happy" as the name of an important book by General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong.
In addition, the lesson on the Party's leadership and organizational capacity, especially personnel and strategic preparation, is a decisive factor for a revolution to succeed. Building a clean, strong, disciplined Party that knows how to promote the strength of social forces is a valuable lesson for the current cause of national construction and defense.
In that, the pioneering, exemplary role and capacity of party members, especially leaders, are very important, in order to be able to lead, persuade and motivate everyone to act together.
In the Russian October Revolution or any revolution, the factor of solidarity and the broad gathering of forces always plays a very important role for the revolution to succeed. Currently, in the context of our country entering a new era, the era of national development, these lessons still have profound value and need to be applied appropriately to be able to complete the goals set by the Party.
The right decision
Under Lenin's leadership, the Bolshevik Party had reasonable strategies and actions to gather forces and seize power. The Party was built into a tight, highly disciplined organization and capable of operating effectively in difficult situations. In particular, leader Lenin was a person with foresight in organizing and directing the revolution. Lenin's leadership helped the Bolshevik Party promote the strength of the workers, peasants and intellectuals, and at the same time make correct decisions at each important moment.
In addition, the Bolshevik Party scientifically organized the revolutionary forces, from workers' organizations to armed troops, ensuring close and decisive coordination in the struggles and seizure of power. The Bolshevik armed forces fought fiercely in the uprisings and fought against 14 imperialist countries later.
