“The self-discipline of the Social Democracy is not merely the replacement of the authority of bourgeois rulers with the authority of a socialist central committee. The working class will acquire the sense of the new discipline, the freely assumed self-discipline of the Social Democracy, not as a result of the discipline imposed on it by the capitalist state, but by extirpating, to the last root, its old habits of obedience and servility.” SelfStatesLastsSocialResultsClassDemocracyHabitDisciplineAuthorityRootsObedienceAcquireCapitalistRulersSocialistCommitteesSelf DisciplineWorking ClassBourgeoisReplacementsOld HabitsServilitySocial Democracy Author:Rosa Luxemburg
