Why does Lenin oppose the traditional type of democracy?
Lenin did not trust the general population of Russia to remain committed to the new socialist society that was obtained through the revolution. He felt they were not truly aware of their status as proletarians as Karl Marx had postulated. If political power were to be handed over to the people so that they could form whatever type of government they wanted, they could throw the Bolsheviks out of power. Not only that but they could reverse the imposition of the socialist government and return to a capitalist one. Lenin refused to allow that to happen, therefore he opposed traditional democracy.

What type of government did Russia have before 1917?
There were three governments in Russia in 1917. The Tsarist regime was the government in Russia at the beginning of 1917. The Provisional Government took over after Tsar Nicholas II abdicated as a result of the February Revolution. Lenin and the Bolsheviks became the governing authority when they deposed the Provisional Government in the October Revolution and remained in power past the end of 1917.
What kind of government did Lenin initiate?
A communist system of government replaced the old, decadent, corrupt monarchy, after the Russian Revolution of 1917. Lenin created a socialist type of government, not a communist type of government. The government created by Lenin was just as repressive and autocratic as the monarchy that had been replaced. Dissent from Bolshevik/Communist doctrine or against the leaders of the Bolsheviks (meaning Lenin himself) was deemed counter-revolutionary and subjected the dissident to exile, imprisonment or death. All political parties, then existing as well as to be formed, except the Bolshevik/Communist Party were dispersed and outlawed. Lenin created the Bolshevik Party which seized governmental power from the Russian Provisional Government, which had been set up in place of Tsar Nicholas' II's rule. Then he created the first Russian republic called the Russian Soviet Federal Socialist Republic, which in 1926 became the Soviet Union. Once the Bolsheviks had all political power with no way for the people to change things, the government got just as corrupt as the Tsar's had been.

What was the essential question that Lenin had regarding the peasantry in Russia before the Bolshevik Revolution?
Lenin and other Marxists paid more attention to the peasantry and agriculture prior to 1917 than is generally noted. Lenin studied the role of the peasants under the Tsarist regime along with how it would function after the revolution the Bolsheviks would create. As with all stages of class struggle, Lenin was sure that capitalism would shape the agriculture in Russia. This would be a natural stage to help set up the inevitable "workers' revolution". The belief in the inevitability of capitalist development in agriculture and with the peasants was essential to the Bolshevik analysis of the peasant problem. The only unanswered question for Lenin prior to the revolution was what type of agrarian capitalism would develop in Russia. It is interesting to noter that Lenin was sure about capitalism and the workers, but that the peasantry was problematical. Marx was never clear on this in that the "peasants" of England and Germany were not a factor in his visions about the workers' rebellions.
