A '''Revolutionary vanguard''' '''movement''', '''revolutionary vanguard party''', '''vanguard movement''', '''vanguard party''', '''revolutionary vanguard''', or sometimes simply '''vanguard''' refers to the problem in [[Marxist]] doctrine of governing after socialist [[revolution]] is achieved. While it takes years of [[ideological]] indoctrination, training and agitation to overthrow the existing government and social order, the objective can be achieved in a moment. At that point [[Socialist]]s are faced with the practical realities of governing. There is a tendency to rest on one's laurels after victory, and a danger of taking on the characteristics of the former regime that led to discontent, sparked the revolution, and was overthrown.
