The subject of this article is the concept of the masses in the social theory of Rosa Luxemburg. In this approach the masses are a big collective and a subject of social transformation, and the revolution. These masses also possess a specific wisdom (social and political instinct) and they act spontaneously. In this article I also present the positions of Luxemburg’s critics and my own opinion about the meaning of her theory. It is my opinion that Rosa Luxemburg’s concept should be viewed as a „transistional moment”, and as a necessary requirement for a marxist theory of ideology and social consciousness.
