The divisions running through the history of the socialist movement
between reformists and revolutionaries, authoritarians and
democrats, putschists and gradualists-the divisions and disputes
which have provided the categories in terms of which the history of
the movement has been written-are secondary. The important
distinction is between those socialists who looked for some outside
authority which would hand down salvation to the grateful masses
from above and those who saw the key to the reform of existing
society in the struggle from below for self-emancipation. Behind
the question: "What do we mean by socialism?" lies a more important
question. What do we mean by democracy?
