Abstract
"The 20th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union was historically
significant for the fundamental revision of Lenin by the introduction of an idealist concept that
the proletariat could surrender state power to the whole people and that this voluntary liquidation
of the Dictatorship of the Proletariat could happen and still lead to communism. This, coupled
with the attack on the cult of the personality, was a cover for an attack on the fundamentals of
Leninism and Lenin’s view that the class rule represented by this dictatorship will exist right up
to communism. This article also shows how this revision influenced the decline in the communist
movement in Australia along with the changes caused by the scientific and technical revolution.
This led to the reestablishment of a bourgeois state at first without a bourgeoisie major but then
seized by the counter-revolutionaries under Yeltsin and Gorbachev."
