Summary[edit]

My viewpoint will be more sympathetic to syndicalism (or industrial unionism, if you prefer) and will argue that the development of the Plebs League/ Labour College was an important factor in developing not just the political maturity of the working class but more generally their access to independent working- class education. Indeed, I will argue that this perspective can be better understood in relation to two movements internationally. In this the first article, I shall look at the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) in the USA. In a second article I will focus on the Proletkult movement which was developing from the ‘anti-Leninist’ wing of Bolshevism which had first emerged around Alexander Bogdanov. I shall also link these to the earlier ‘proletarian positivism’ movement.
