The author enumerates a few of the causes as a result of which the October Revolution took place the way it did. He attributes a special role to the euphoria in Europe at the beginning of the century over industrialisation, the lack of the middle class, the utopian-egalitarian influence of mass consciousness and the differences between the goals of the masses of people and the political parties, etc.

The author gives a picture of the image of the Soviet Union held by groups of various political trends in Hungary during the Horthy era, from the communists to the various bourgeois ideologies and the Hungarian fascists. His main conclusion is that it is not the scale at which the Soviet Union was rejected but rather its nature what divided the various forces. He stresses that for a long time to come, not the liberalism rejecting dictatorial rule is the main opposition of the forces of socialism: they are on the same side in their opposition to the conservative, nationalistic dictatorships.

This document is an abbreviated publication of the statement with which the already united Trotski and Kameniev-Zinoviev groups tried in the last minute to stop Stalin's dictatorship to absolutely prevail in Russian society. In the parts published, the authors launch an attack against the capitalist elements of the NEP period and the Stalinist-bureaucratic features which are termed as intertwined with the above, and they try to obstruct the turn that pushes the workers again to a complete state of subordination.

The analysis tries to review and group the political trends of the multiparty system in the Soviet Union which exists in a very initial form as yet, and it separates the the different phases of the emergence of a multi-party system. It states that the Soviet Communist Party which cannot be classified as a party for quite some time, involves the most different forces and when these are separated, this party will not have a future any more. The main political forces in the Soviet Union, too, include the national-conservative, the liberal-bourgeois and the labour-socialist (and the „vanguard" which is being pushed into the back). The author's sympathy is with the future party of the workers which, however, is still far from being able to mobilise masses of people.
