ABSTRACT
The problems that were taken up by the members of the new party, to be known as the Workers' and Peasants' Bloc was largely new to the Spanish workers' movement. The vision of Spanish reality held by the bloquistes was summarized in the political theses approved by the Terrassa congress. Spain needed a bourgeois-democratic revolution, which must be carried out by the working class, since the bourgeoisie had demonstrated and would continue to demonstrate its incapacity to achieve it. The congress elected a central committee, which in turn named an executive committee, composed of Joaquim Maurin, general secretary, David Rey, and Pere Bonet from the Catalan-Balearic Federation. The Bloc is mounting in Catalunya a campaign of great violence against the party, and has consolidated its ranks, notwithstanding the claims of our comrades. The main forces of the revolution were the workers, the peasants, the Catalan nationalist movement, and an important part of the youth.
