The article deals with polemics between V. Lenin and A. Bogdanov, represented within the books 'Materialism and Empirio-criticism' and 'Faith and Science', respectively. These polemics permit to define principle forms of the future Soviet philosophy. Such forms are: the authoritative thinking as an invariant of religious belief, partisanship in philosophy as methodological base in the history of philosophy, and positivists' rejection of any metaphysics.
