Anti-revisionism is the communist opposition to revisionist and opportunist tendencies within the working class movement and exposing deviations from Marxist principles. Opposition to revisionism represents a core aspect to the broader political struggle against capitalist ideology, as revisionism represents a counter-revolutionary movement which serves the interests of the bourgeoisie.[1]
Opposition to revisionism and opportunist deviations in the socialist movement dates back to its very inception in the 19th century, with Marx and Engels waging ideological struggle against anarchists, reformists, and others in the International Workingmen's Association. As capitalism entered the era of imperialism and socialist revolution, Leninism developed in this background and similarly combated opportunists, most notably the social-chauvinist Second International. Early anti-revisionist works include Marxism and Revisionism, Anarchism or Socialism?, and Left-wing Communism: An Infantile Disorder.[1]
Later forms of anti-revisionism would emerge after the death of Joseph Stalin and rise of Nikita Khrushchev to power in the Soviet Union and its restoration of capitalism in the 1950s, spearheaded by Enver Hoxha and Mao Zedong during the Sino-Soviet and Soviet-Albanian splits respectively.
