Lenin describes the "Transitional phase" of the Russian Revolution to refer to the idea that True Communism would exist in the near future. By saying this, he tries to explain that the transition to Communism would be gradual, since several measures should be taken. These measures would be directed to change the course of economy from capitalist to communist, but for this change to happen the Party would need the support of the bourgeoisie and from the vast majority of peasants, who represented the 80% of population. Other actions to be taken would be to exert a strict control of the State over the main economic activities, such as banks, companies and industries.
