- Communist_Party_of_the_Soviet_Union abstract "The Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU) was the founding and ruling political party of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR). The CPSU was the sole governing party of the Soviet Union until 1990 when the Supreme Soviet of the Soviet Union annulled the law which granted the CPSU monopoly over the political system. It was founded in 1912 by the majority faction of the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party, the revolutionary group led by Vladimir Lenin which seized power in the aftermath of the October Revolution of 1917. The party was dissolved on 29 August 1991, as a result of the failed coup of August 1991.The CPSU was organized around the idea of democratic centralism, a principle conceived by Lenin that entails democratic and open discussion of policy issues and the requirement of unity in upholding agreed upon policies. The highest body within the CPSU was the party Congress, convened every five years. When the Congress was not in session, the Central Committee was the highest body, but since the body met twice a year, most day-to-day duties and responsibilities were vested in the Politburo, the Secretariat, and the Orgburo (until 1952). The party leader was the head of government and held the office of either General Secretary, Premier or head of state, or some of the three offices concurrently (but never all three at the same time). The party leader was the de facto chairman of the CPSU Politburo and the chief executive of the country.The CPSU was committed to communist thought, and according to its party statute the CPSU adhered to Marxism–Leninism, an ideology based on the writings of Lenin and Karl Marx, and formalized under Joseph Stalin. The party pursued state socialism, meaning all industries were nationalized, and state planning. Before central planning was enacted in 1929, Lenin had introduced a mixed economy (commonly referred to as the New Economic Policy) in the 1920s. When Mikhail Gorbachev took power, the general sentiment within the party and society was that the planned economy had failed and there was a need to introduce a market economy. Gorbachev and some of his allies envisioned introducing an economy similar to Lenin's New Economic Policy through a program of perestroika, or rebuilding, but the results of their reforms contributed to the fall of the entire system of government.A number of causes contributed to CPSU's loss of control and the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Some historians have characterized Gorbachev's policy of democratization as the root cause, noting that it weakened the party's control over society. Others have pointed to the economic stagnation and loss of faith by the general populace in communist ideology. The Communist Party of China expressed their view that the cause of the fall tracks back to Joseph Stalin, criticizing him for the "bastardization of Leninism", turning Marxism into dogma, creating a one-man rule, and introducing an inefficient economic system.".
