Where can I read The Founders of the Soviet Union on the Internet?
Inadvertently see your question, there is a saying on the Internet that is Lenin's famous saying:

Whenever a country's political and economic crisis occurs, the broken patriotic flag will stink again.

Its source, on one hand, is: "the creator of the leadership thought stipulated by our party party constitution, the founder of the Soviet Union"; The other is: the founder of the Soviet Union. Some people say: "Lenin was a national chauvinist who opposed and supported the First World War in the Second International".

For this reason, I looked up the Complete Works of Lenin all morning and watched it again in the evening, but I still couldn't find this article (assuming it was an article). Searching for papers on patriotism and Lenin through network resources, no one has ever mentioned a similar sentence.

So I think the so-called famous sayings and the titles of the sources should be fabricated, and most people just copy them by reposting them, no matter whether they are true or false.

Lenin has many expositions about patriotism, such as:

"Patriotism is an extremely deep feeling formed by the isolation of their respective motherland for thousands of years." (Complete Works of Lenin: Volume 35 [M]. Beijing: People's Publishing House, 1985. P 187)

On the same page, he also said: "A particularly huge and unique difficulty of China's proletarian revolution is that it has to go through a period of resolutely breaking away from patriotism, that is, the Brest Peace Treaty period. The pain, resentment and anger caused by this peace treaty are understandable. Naturally, we Marxists can only expect the enlightened proletarian vanguard to understand the following truth: for the highest interests of the world proletarian revolution, we bear and should bear the greatest national sacrifice. "

Under the new historical conditions that the imperialist war is about to break out and the situation of proletarian revolution is becoming more and more mature, Lenin adhered to and carried forward the basic position of Marxism-proletarian internationalism, and held high "turning the imperialist war into a civil war" and war defeatism.

Banna, the second international leader with chauvinism and reconciliation, fought resolutely until the final ideological and organizational break and liquidation, and on this basis, he founded the Soviet Republic and the * * * Production International. In the Third International and its Historical Position published at the beginning of the establishment of the * * * Production International, Lenin proudly declared that "the Third International has produced the fruits of the work of the Second International, cleared away its opportunism, social chauvinism, bourgeoisie and petty bourgeoisie, and began to realize the dictatorship of the proletariat". (Selected Works of Lenin, Volume III, The Third International and Its Position in History, page 8 10) The "dirty things" of "social chauvinism" mentioned here are "patriotism" as opposed to internationalism.

In the article "Proletarian Revolution and Traitor Kaucki", which broke with the Second International, Lenin used a whole chapter to explain the position of Kaucki and other international leaders who ignored the principle of internationalism and surrendered to the tendency of social chauvinism on the issue of war. What is internationalism? ) made a solemn criticism ":Kaucki unprincipled" reconciled "the following two things: on the one hand, it was the basic idea of social chauvinism-admitting to defending the motherland in this war; on the other hand, it made superficial concessions to the left in diplomacy, such as abstaining from voting on military appropriations and verbally admitting that it had taken an opposing position. ..... He (that is, Kaucki-according to) tried his best to maintain and whitewash social chauvinism, and, like plekhanov, went along with the bourgeoisie and laughed at all revolutionary intentions and all steps of direct revolutionary struggle. ”。 "If the working class does not wage a ruthless struggle against this kind of traitor's behavior, this kind of immoral behavior, and this kind of theoretically unprecedented flattering opportunism and vulgarization of Marxism, it will be impossible to achieve its goal of world revolution." Obviously, Lenin emphasized whether to adhere to internationalism and oppose patriotism to the height of a world revolution that is crucial to the working class. Lenin mercilessly refuted the so-called internationalism advocated by Kaucki, Turati, Runge, Gade and others: "Theoretically speaking, this is completely not good at distinguishing from social chauvinism, which is a completely confused concept in defending the motherland." Politically speaking, this is to exchange bourgeois nationalism for internationalism, and this is to turn to reformism and abandon the revolution. ""From the point of view of the proletariat, recognizing' defending the motherland' means defending the current war and recognizing that it is reasonable ... recognizing defending the motherland is actually supporting the imperialist robber bourgeoisie and completely rebelling against socialism. "

Lenin tirelessly warned the whole party of the great significance of internationalism: "proletarian internationalism first requires that the interests of the proletarian struggle of a country be subordinate to the interests of the proletarian struggle of the whole world;" The second requirement is that the nation that is defeating the bourgeoisie has the ability and determination to bear the greatest national sacrifice for overthrowing international capital. "Therefore, we must always be alert to the harm of" patriotism "and fight it to the end." The more urgent the task of transforming the dictatorship of the proletariat from a national dictatorship (that is, a dictatorship that exists in one country and cannot determine world politics) to an international dictatorship (that is, at least a few advanced countries can have a certain influence on world politics), the more important the struggle against the scourge of the most stubborn petty-bourgeois national prejudice is.

Lenin regarded "patriotism" as the mortal enemy of the working class liberation movement for a long historical period, not only because he was deeply bound by traditional theories, but also because he needed to fight against opportunism and national chauvinism, which seriously endangered the future of the international working class at that time, and to expose and criticize the expansionism and militarism of various countries that mercilessly provoked the First World War. He clearly held high the great red flag of internationalism in order to oppose war, advocate peace, prevent the proletariat and progressive forces from killing each other and consuming each other in the struggle of monopoly groups in various countries, and strive for more understanding, sympathy and support for the proletarian revolutionary cause. Lenin did not oppose the people's deep feelings for the motherland without principle. Therefore, Lenin's fierce opposition to the "patriotism" that was ruthlessly defiled at that time was not only understandable, but also completely justified and deserved. Lenin's opposition to Luxemburg's "Left" argument, which ignored the nationalist tradition, and his support for the independent liberation movement of Poland, Finland and other small and weak ethnic groups after the October Revolution just showed that Lenin fully understood and fully supported the just struggle of "patriotism" to get rid of colonial rule, and believed that the liberation of colonial ethnic groups was a necessary prerequisite and an inevitable way for the international working class to be liberated, and it was also a touchstone for judging the truth and falsehood of Marxism. Lenin's struggle against the capitulationism and opportunism of the Second International and the right-wing leaders of the Mensheviks and his criticism of "patriotism" reflect the unshakable revolutionary stand of Marxism on major principles concerning the fate of the working class, and also reflect the high unity and inseparability of the proletarian revolutionary cause and the national liberation cause. Therefore, Lenin's concept of "patriotism" is consistent with the cause of international proletarian liberation and human progress at that time, and it is an integral part of Lenin's brilliant theory.
