Economism is a term periodically mentioned by Lenin that describes a reformist trend in the early days of revolutionary Russia. This movement was in support of trade unionism, increased wages, working conditions and so on, with a single-minded focus on the local level. Explicitly rejecting wider systemic changes, such as revolution.
