Already, at the Romance Congress at Chaux-de-Fonds on April 4, 1870, the admission of the Bakuninist sections had raised a veritable storm twenty-one delegates voting for the admission, and eighteen against it, and the latter withdrew immediately from the Congress in consequence of the decision.
The severe repressive measures afterwards adopted by the Government kept Anarchism down for some time. In Spain, also, at the beginning of the seventies, there was as was the case with all the Romance countries a strong Bakuninist party, which was said to have amounted to 50,000 men in 1873.
Petersburg and elsewhere he appeared as the founder of such branch societies, attached to the Bakuninist section of the "International," and chiefly recruited from the ranks of youthful students.
Thereupon the Bakuninist sections were in July, 1869, declared to be "International," although in London it was never believed that the members of the "Alliance" would keep the conditions. Not only the Central Committee continued as before, but also the secret organisation and Bakunin's leadership.
The head and soul of this union was the Bakuninist, Paul Brousse, a zealous and reckless Anarchist and clever journalist, who in his paper Avantgarde was one of the first to preach the "propaganda of action." In December, 1878, this paper was suppressed by the Swiss Government because it had approved the attempts of Hödel and Nobeling.
The phrase "harbinger of the abolition of every form of authority" would seem to indicate that Lenine's ideal is that of the old Nihilists or of Anarchists of the Bakuninist school. That is very far from the truth. The phrase in question is merely a rhetorical flourish.
