 The Struggle of the Communist Party, is taken from it. Revisionismis a historical phenomenon hostile to Marxism. Since the birth of the labour movement to this day, an intense struggle between two tendencies has been waged within the movement: the revolutionary one and the opportunist one.http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ml2day-recent?d=yIl2AUoC8zA (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ml2day-recent?a=YEZhv9zv1HY:DfCM51-P2n4:yIl2AUoC8zA) http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ml2day-recent?d=qj6IDK7rITs (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ml2day-recent?a=YEZhv9zv1HY:DfCM51-P2n4:qj6IDK7rITs) http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ml2day-recent?i=YEZhv9zv1HY:DfCM51-P2n4:F7zBnMyn0Lo (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ml2day-recent?a=YEZhv9zv1HY:DfCM51-P2n4:F7zBnMyn0Lo) http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ml2day-recent?i=YEZhv9zv1HY:DfCM51-P2n4:gIN9vFwOqvQ (http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ml2day-recent?a=YEZhv9zv1HY:DfCM51-P2n4:gIN9vFwOqvQ)

This is quite good.

In short, Marxism-Leninism emphasizes three essential particularities of right-wing opportunism or revisionism:

• Revisionism is an international phenomenon, being a social product of a particular historical epoch.

• Revisionism regularly appears in the workers' parties, given the cyclical nature of capitalist development, and it can adopt diverse forms.

• Right-wing opportunism, in reviewing the basic postulates of Marxism, distorts the revolutionary character of the workers' party, deviating it from its main objective: the destruction of the economic and political power of the bourgeoisie[9].
