Excerpt from Resolutions and Decisions of the Second World-Congress of the Red International of Labour Unions: Session 19 November to 2 December, 1922 The ebb of the labour movement is the beginning of a well thought out, well shaped, systematic attack of capitalism upon the essentials of the workers' attainments. As a result of this systematic pressure on the part of the bourgeoisie, the trade unions internally reconstruct themselves. In the first place they shrink. A certain proportion of the workers, ' disappo'inted with the futile activity of the trade unions and their helplessness to render some kind of resistance to the attacks of capitalism, split. The most active leave the old positions, and thus a continuous movement from right to left IS going on among the rank and file_ a move from' the reformist positions to the revolutionary. While the leaders are organically connected with the bourgeois state, the masses are spasmodically searching in the revolution for a way out from the deadlock in which the working class finds itself at present.
