Abstract

The article examines Leon Trotsky political program with regard to literary and artistic process in the USSR. Trotsky was a supporter of “poputchiki” and an opponent of proletarian literature as the perfect final form of creative work. He believed in the triumph of communism when classes and class struggle disappear, and the time for the final victory of mankind over social ills will come. Expecting the world revolution, he did not admit that the temporary phase of the development of artistic creative work - in the form of proletarian literature - may be final. Proletarian literature, he argued, can not be a full-fledged literature of the future
