1937 Stalin's thesis on the exacerbation of the class struggle
80 years ago, on March 3, 1937, speaking at a plenum of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks, Stalin declared: “The more we move forward, the more we have successes, the more the remnants of the defeated exploiting classes will become embittered, the sooner they will go to more acute forms of struggle, the more they will harm the Soviet state, the more they will seize on the most desperate means of struggle as the last means of the doomed.
