Communism must be a world wide phenomenon opr it will be nothing- capitalism is a world wide system, and so must communism/socialism.
Marx said that a proletariat revolution will occur ( class struggle) then there will be a dictatorship of the proletariat. After that all The Leninists and the Trots tend to think of DIctatorship of the proletariate as being the dictatoprhip by the party of the proles- as we had in Russia- they will rule in the name and interests of the proles. The real dictatorship of the proles will be when the achieve class consciousness, and actively excercise their democratic majoritive status.

They haven't, they only achieved the dictatorship bit....

Yup

Will probably destroy much of the petit bourgeois middle class- we can already see an ostensible proletarianisasion of the people on Britain- causualisation of labour even in white collar industry, etc....

True- however, the radical intelectuals seem to have lost their way, and in the despair of the failure of '68, and of the failure of socialism in general, seem to have lost themselves into a neo-hegelian idealist miasma- perhaps its a good thing- the intelectuals only ever really seemed to want to run the world themselves (Hence many intelectual left were leninists- they were to be the intelectual vanguard and dictatoship). As long as there are human begins there is a chance for communism.
