Lukacs subtitled his essay on Lenin 'A Study on the Unity of his Thought. when At the moment the bureaucratic degeneration of the Russian Revolution was accelerat- ing rapidly, the defence of Lenin's heritage meant the theo- retical and practical struggle to grasp the nature of this process.
But Lukacs instead gives a logical formal account of the connection between the different parts of Lenin's work, and in this way helps to cover over the process of its destruction.
the Lenin's achievement in construction and theoretical arm- ing of the Bolshevik Party and the Third International is fossil- ized, reduced to a few logical formulas, an empty shell at the disposal conservative bureaucracy. Before 1918, the young Lukacs had come from mystical ideal- ism to anarcho-syndicalism and then to the Communist Inter- national. He was a member of the ill-fated government of Bela Kun in 1919 and had to go into exile in Vienna and Moscow.
his History In 1923, and Class Consciousness' appeared.
This collection of essays was an attempt to adapt Marxism to Hegelian idealism. Lukacs saw the dialectic as the contradictory referring to development of society, or only of class society. In opposition to Engels, he declares that it has no relevance to the movements of the natural world. Lukacs made formal acknow- ledgement of these criticisms and, immediately after Lenin's death, tried to rehabilitate himself with 'orthodox' book on Lenin. his And so the controversy of 1923 was never argued out. In fact, the essay on Lenin contains precisely the same con- ceptions as the book of the pre- vious year. Lukacs' method of adaptation to the bureaucracy is already in operation. "Historical' The word 'materialism' never appears in this book without the prefix 'historical'. On page 55 we read the following: 'For the dialectic is no more than the conceptual expression of the fact that the development of society is in reality contra- dictory, and that these contradic- (class contradictions, the tions character of their antagonistic i economic existence, etc.) are the basis and kernel of all events.'
This outlook opens the way for idealism. If contradiction is only to be found in history, then the strug.
gle of man against nature must be seen as arising outside the material world. Marx, on the contrary, explains this struggle arising within matter, and in its course man develops his powers to grasp the contradictions within nature and his subjugate them to serve needs. The consequences of Lukacs essentially idealist position were developed in the rest the book-and in the rest of his life.
While he can talk about Lenin's conception of the work- ers' revolution in Russia, theory of imperialism and of the

Yet, even though Neill's ideas are fundamentally based on a false premise and though it is impossible for them to be applied generally in a society based on private property, it is still true that much of what he says is good.
