1. Does it follow from Marx’s “Address” to the Communists in March 1850[1] that Marx regarded it as inconceivable for Communists to take part in a provisional revolutionary government together with the bourgeoisie in the epoch of a democratic revolution?

2. Is it true that in this “Address” Marx did not even raise the question of Social-Democratic participation in a provisional revolutionary government?

3. Is there any difference between: “regard participation as inconceivable” and “not to raise the question of participation”?

4. Is it true that in this “Address” Marx himself noted a strengthening of the petty-bourgeois democratic party and a weakening of the Communist workers’ party in the recent period?
