“…the 1871 Commune was a valiant but unsuccessful attempt to reclaim Paris for its demos and thus to revolutionize and democratize the capital. During the Paris Commune, the capital briefly seemed poised to become plebeian again[…] However, the outcome of that revolution determined that Paris was to be bourgeois, and to remain so for a long time, until the present day, in fact.”
“The working-class party and state that have seized power are faced with the mighty task of building socialism and communism. It is imperative for building socialism and communism to continue the revolution even after the socialist system has been established and to push ahead with the struggle to capture the ideological and material fortresses of communism.”
