For Y. Larin
Dear Comrade,
To my regret, the list of contributors, the indefinite nature of the miscellany, the restrictions imposed on the contributors, and the lack of information about some of themâall of this obliges me to decline to participate.[1]
With Social-Democratic greetings,
Lenin
- â The letter is Leninâs reply to Y. Larinâs proposal to take part in a collection criticising defencism and substantiating the Zimmerwald platform. It was to be published legally in Russia. Among the contributors abroad were to be Axelrod, Lunacharsky and Martov. In Russia, they were being selected by N. Sukhanov. The terms on which these were accepted included, in particular, the stipulation that âthe articles of the collection should not contain any attacks by contributors against each otherâ. The collection was not issued.
