The third chapter examines the Bolsheviks' rise to power in Russia and the establishment of the Soviet state.Subsequent chapters focus on the impact of Bolshevism on political and industrial democracy.

He also explores the Bolsheviks' approach to industrial democracy, arguing that their policies are designed to benefit the party rather than the workers.Throughout the book, Spargo draws on historical examples and contemporary events to illustrate his arguments.
