description The emergence and consolidation within the working class of a social stratum —the trade union bureaucracy— which, although it may originate in that class, eventually acquires privileges and interests that lead it to defend positions contrary to the political independence of the workers, disarticulating them politically and subordinating them to the bourgeois state, is a universal phenomenon of capitalism. In this article we will describe the attempts made by Russian Tsarism to artificially create a trade union bureaucracy under the aegis of the police between 1898 and 1905. The peculiarity of the Russian experience during the years immediately prior to the 1905 revolution resides in the fact that it did not take place, as was usually the case in other countries, by granting workers freedom of strike, assembly and association and through the gradual cooptation of their ruling stratum by the bourgeois state, but as a result of an initiative of the Ministry of the Interior, and within it of the Secret Police (Okhrana), as opposed to the official policy of Tsarism, which did not legalize the unions until 1906, as well as that of the Ministry of Finance, which controlled the factory inspectorate and was particularly sensitive to the pressures of the capitalists. The contradictions of that policy blew up with the massacre perpetrated by Tsarism during the “Bloody Sunday” of January 9, 1905, which began the first Russian revolution and led to the partial legalization of trade union activity.

In this article we will describe the attempts made by Russian Tsarism to artificially create a trade union bureaucracy under the aegis of the police between 1898 and 1905. The peculiarity of the Russian experience during the years immediately prior to the 1905 revolution resides in the fact that it did not take place, as was usually the case in other countries, by granting workers freedom of strike, assembly and association and through the gradual cooptation of their ruling stratum by the bourgeois state, but as a result of an initiative of the Ministry of the Interior, and within it of the Secret Police (Okhrana), as opposed to the official policy of Tsarism, which did not legalize the unions until 1906, as well as that of the Ministry of Finance, which controlled the factory inspectorate and was particularly sensitive to the pressures of the capitalists.

El surgimiento y consolidación en el seno de la clase obrera de un estrato social —la burocracia sindical— que, aunque tenga su origen en dicha clase, con el tiempo adquiere privilegios e intereses que lo llevan a defender posiciones contrarias a la independencia política de los trabajadores, desarticulándolos políticamente y subordinándolos al Estado burgués, es un fenómeno universal del capitalismo. En este artículo, describiremos los intentos realizados por el zarismo ruso de crear artificialmente una burocracia sindical bajo la égida de la policía entre 1898 y 1905. La peculiaridad de la experiencia rusa durante los años inmediatamente anteriores a la revolución de 1905 reside en el hecho de que no tuvo lugar, como ocurrió usualmente en otros países, mediante el otorgamiento de la libertad de huelga, de reunión y de asociación a los trabajadores y mediante la cooptación gradual de su estrato dirigente por el Estado burgués, sino como resultado de una iniciativa del Ministerio del Interior, y dentro de él de la Policía Secreta (Ojrana), en contraposición tanto a la política oficial del zarismo, que no legalizó los sindicatos hasta 1906, como a la del Ministerio de Finanzas, que controlaba a los inspectores de fábrica y era particularmente sensible a las presiones de los capitalistas. Las contradicciones de dicha política estallaron con la masacre perpetrada por el zarismo durante el “Domingo Sangriento” del 9 de enero de 1905, que dio comienzo a la primera revolución rusa y condujo a la legalización parcial de la actividad sindical.
