| Sumario: | onsidering the analytical contributions of both social history and the post-revisionist current of Soviet historiography, the present work addresses the question of the controversial figure of the so-called bourgeois specialistsduring the first decade of post-Revolutionary Russia. The aim is to investigate an aspect of the dynamics which the interaction between factory workers and the Bolshevik leadership assumed during the period. It is argued in this sense that the conjugation, towards the end of the 1920s, between expressions of “anti-specialist” feelings, “from above” and “from below” should be read as the result of a negotiated definition about the general contours of the nascent Soviet socio-economic formation. The different fractions of the factory proletariat in the main urban centers displayed a considerable capacity at the time of setting, from their own workplaces, the meaning of such a definition. Finally, it is suggested that this negotiating capacity of the workers’ bases vis-à-vis the various leading strata is based on a powerful local cohesion on which the party had to laboriously intervene through its factory cells, in order to achieve the mobilization of labor around official projects to increase labor productivity. |
