Claudie Weill, Apropos of the word "Bolshevism".
The present article is devoted to the study of the words "Bolshevik" and "Bolshevism" at the period when they are still "confidential," that is to say when their use is restricted to political organizations, before they penetrate into the language of society. This period extends from their emergence at the end of 1904 till the revolution of 1917. The use made of them by supporters and adversaries is as revealing of the history of the Social Democrat movement as of their conception of this history guided by polemical considerations. In fact, the two terms prove to be substitutes of onomastic designations of "leninist" and "leninism" at a time when international socialism endeavours to impose generic qualificatives to the trends that pass through it in order to legitimate its image of mass movement. This care preoccupies especially the Workers' Social Democrat Party of Russia having its origin in a chaos of small disseminated circles and subjected perpetually to new divisions.
