What does recall mean in progressive ideas?

In the context of progressive ideas, "recall" refers to a political process that allows voters to remove elected officials from office before the end of their term. It is often seen as a tool for direct democracy, empowering citizens to hold leaders accountable for their actions or decisions. The recall process typically involves gathering a certain number of signatures from registered voters to trigger a special election. This mechanism reflects the progressive emphasis on transparency, accountability, and active civic engagement in governance.

Why did Lenin dismiss the Russian Constituent Assembly?

Lenin dismissed the Constituent Assembly because he feared that if it actually convened and created a new government, it would remove him and his Bolsheviks from power and institute a constitutional democracy. The Bolshevik Party only received 25% of the votes in the elections to the Assembly. Lenin and his Bolsheviks were a minority party and did not have the general support of all of the people and other political parties. Members of the Constituent Assembly had been elected before the Bolshevik Revolution and contained many members who were opposed to Bolshevik rule. More members of the Socialist Revolutionary Party and the Menshevik Party had been elected to the CA. The Bolsheviks would have been outvoted on any issue and thrown out of power, so Lenin had to dissolve the CA or face being stripped of his power. Lenin used the excuse that the elected members were either improperly elected or were counter-revolutionaries and should not be part of creating a new government. The charges were untrue but he made them anyway and dismissed the CA.
