What type of critics did Rakovsky have of Stalinism?

  • "Bureaucratic centrism"

  • "Bolshevik betrayal"

  • "Tyrannical dictatorship"

  • "Popular oppression"

Answer

Rakovsky criticized Stalinism for its "bureaucratic centrism." This meant that power was centralized in the hands of a small group of bureaucrats who made decisions without input from the broader party membership or the working class. This led to a lack of democracy and accountability, as well as a stifling of creativity and initiative.
