ABSTRACT
From the people, to the people: this means: take the ideas of the people (scattered and unsystematic ideas) and concentrate them (through study turn them into concentrated and systematic ideas), then go the masses and propagate them until the masses embrace them as their own, hold fast to them and translate them into action, and test the correctness of these ideas in such action. Then once again concentrate ideas from the masses and once again go to the masses so that the ideas are persevered in and carried through. And so on, over and over again in an endless spiral, with the ideas becoming ever more correct, more vital and richer each time. Such is the Marxist theory of knowledge.
