About this book
The book presents itself as a critical examination of the actual workings of Bolshevism in Russia, addressing those who hailed a new freedom. The account says that the Bolsheviki wanted to transfer political, military and economic governmental power to bodies such as the Soviets. The account describes the Provisional Government as initially representative of the bourgeoisie rather than the working people, and therefore not fully democratic.
The discussion of railroad management states that workers’ control committees were abolished and the directors’ dictatorial powers made absolute. The account describes daily wages being replaced by piece-work supplemented with cash bonuses for special efficiency, calling the change a return of capitalist wage-system features.
