RESOLUTION OF THE TENTH CONGRESS OF
THE RUSSIAN COMMUNIST PARTY
ON PARTY UNITY (1921) *
1. The Congress draws the attention of all mem-
bers of the Party to the fact that the unity and
compactness of its ranks, the maintenance of com-
plete confidence among Party members and unity
of action and a real embodiment of the unity of
the will of the vanguard of the proletariat are spe-
cially necessary at the present moment when a
series of circumstances tend to intensify vacillation
among the petty bourgeois population of the
country.
2. Already prior to the general Party discussion
on the question of trade unions there had been
observed certain evidences of fractionalism, i. e.
the rise of groups within the Party, having their
own platform and aiming at exclusiveness and the
establishment of their own group discipline.
It is necessary that all class-conscious workers
clearly recognize the harm and the impossibility of
allowing any kind of fractionism, which must inevi-
Rima.
