If this does not happen, then it will constitute proof that the Institute is worth nothing.

13. As the initial draft of instructions, the draft by comrade Varga should serve.752 Two fundamental amendments to this draft are necessary, in particular: 1) § 3 — upward;

2) a far more detailed elaboration of the political section.

Some remarks on this point 2:
(Appendix B.) § 3 and 4: Correspondence from factories?
+ collection of money by the workers themselves?
+ the questions of the trade union movement from a political point of view must be worked out in a specially detailed manner and with particular emphasis. The conquest of the trade unions is one of the most important political questions.
+ workers' cooperatives: the same thing (to part II, b)
+ all transitional political formations (such as the labor-farmer party in the United States) are especially important.
+ Leaflets? Distribution? Dissemination?
+ the relation to the war of 1914-1918? Extremely important.

Part II, § a "revolutionary" (??) workers' parties such as the KRPG.

The name is incorrect. They are not revolutionary. One ought to say: semi-anarchist, anarchistic-leaning, or standing close to anarchism.

One should add: the split of anarchism throughout the world on patriotic and internationalist questions; for the Soviet system, against the Soviet system.
(§ b) Parties of the 2nd and 2½ International — far more detailed.
+ the relation to one's own colonies — and imperialism in practical politics
— far, far more detailed.
+ all pacifist and petty-bourgeois-democratic groups and tendencies — far more detailed.

And so forth.
