Letter to Nikolai Bukharin, Between September and December 1920
Published: First published in 1930 in Lenin Miscellany XII. Printed from the original.
Source: Lenin Collected Works, Progress Publishers, 1975, Moscow, Volume 44, page 439d.
Written in reply to a note from Bukharin concerning V. I. Nevskyâs article âDialectical Materialism and the Philosophy of Dead Reactionâ (see present edition, Vol. 14, p. 21). In his note, Bukharin pointed out that whereas previously Bogdanov had recognised philosophy, he now abolished it and replaced it by â tektologyâ or âuniversally organised scienceâ (as Bogdanov called his book published in 1913). âThis formulation of the problem is on a different plane from that of empirio-monism,â wrote Bukharin. âIt can be disputed but it is necessary at least to understand it. Nevsky, however, does not have this minimum requirement.â
Bogdanov has fooled you by disguising (verkleidet) an old dispute and trying to shift it onto a different plane. And you are taken in by it!
