e) to charge interest at a rate not exceeding 1.5% per month on the total amount due to the extent it remains unpaid for more than 3 working days after the sale;Kronstadt was a popular uprising from below by the same sailors, soldiers and workers that made the 1917 October revolution. The Bolshevik repression of the revolt can be justified in terms of defending the state power of the Bolsheviks but it cannot be defended in terms of socialist theory. Indeed, it indicates that Bolshevism is a flawed political theory, which cannot create a socialist society, but only a state capitalist regime based on party dictatorship. This is what Kronstadt shows above all else: given a choice between workers' power and party power, Bolshevism will destroy the former to ensure the latter. Private treaty sales made under these Conditions are deemed to be sales by auction for purposes of consumer legislation. Faced with the prospect of summary executions, about 8,000 Kronstadt refugees (mostly soldiers) [198] crossed into Finland within a day of Kronstadt's fall, about half of the rebel forces. Petrichenko and members of the Kronstadt Revolutionary Committee were among the first to flee, with 800 arriving before the end of the assault. [199] The sailors' final acts were to sabotage Kronstadt's defenses, removing parts of weapons and equipment. The battleship crews, upon discovering their leaders' desertion, disobeyed their command to destroy the ships and instead arrested their officers and surrendered to the Bolsheviks. [200] Aftermath [ edit ] Petrichenko and other Kronstadt rebels in Finnish exile The government accused opponents of being French-led counterrevolutionaries and claimed that the Kronstadt rebels were commanded by General Alexander Kozlovsky [ ru], the former Tsarist officer then responsible for base artillery, [108] although it was in the hands of the Revolutionary Committee. [109] As of March 2, the entire province of Petrograd was subject to martial law and the Defense Committee chaired by Zinoviev had obtained special powers to suppress the protests. [110] There was a hurry to gain control of the fortress before the thawing of the frozen bay, which would have made it impregnable for the land army. [36] Trotsky presented alleged French press articles announcing the revolt two weeks before its outbreak as proof that the rebellion was a plan devised by the emigre and the forces of the Entente. Lenin used the same tactic to accuse the rebels a few days later at the 10th Party Congress. [111]

The Kronstadt sailors had been in the vanguard of the revolutionary events of 1905 and 1917. In 1917, Trotsky called them the "pride and glory of the Russian Revolution." The inhabitants of Kronstadt had been early supporters and practitioners of soviet power, forming a free commune in 1917 which was relatively independent of the authorities. In the words of Israel Getzler, an expert on Kronstadt:Mawdsley, Evan (1973). "The Baltic Fleet and the Kronstadt Mutiny". Soviet Studies. 24 (4): 506–521. doi: 10.1080/09668137308410887. ISSN 0038-5859. JSTOR 150800. In his analysis of the rebellion, historian Paul Avrich wrote that the rebels had scant chance of success, even if the ice melted to their favor and aid had arrived. [218] Kronstadt was unprepared, ill-timed, and outmatched against a government that had just won a civil war of greater magnitude. [219] Petrichenko, chair of the Kronstadt Revolutionary Committee, shared this retrospective criticism. [220] Assistance from the White Army's General Wrangel would have taken months to mobilize. [221] Avrich summed up the whole context in the introduction of his book Kronstadt, 1921: e) “total amount due” means the hammer price in respect of the lot sold together with any premium, Value Added Tax chargeable and any additional charges payable by a defaulting buyer under these Conditions; h) to apply any proceeds of sale of other Lots due or in future becoming due to you towards the settlement of the total amount due and to exercise a lien (that is a right to retain possession of) any of your property in our possession for any purpose until the debt due is satisfied.

Some of the government troops sent to suppress the revolt, upon learning that the island's rule by commissioners had been eliminated, instead defected to the rebellion. [119] The government had serious problems with the regular troops sent to suppress the uprising, and resorted to using cadets and Cheka agents. [120] The high-ranking Bolshevik leaders responsible for the operation had to return from the 10th Party Congress in Moscow. [119]Schapiro, Leonard (1965).

By January 1921, Raskolnikov had lost real control [64] of fleet management because of his disputes with Zinoviev and held his position only formally. [65] The sailors revolted in Kronstadt, officially deposing Raskolnikov from office. [66] On February 15, 1921, an opposition group within the Bolshevik party itself passed a critical resolution at a party conference with Bolshevik delegates from the Baltic Fleet. [67] This resolution harshly criticized the fleet's administrative policy, accusing it of removing power from the masses and most active officials, and becoming a purely bureaucratic body. [68] It demanded the democratization of party structures and warned that if there were no changes there could be a rebellion. [48]
