Dual Power is a term used by Lenin
Dual Power is a term used by Lenin. Alongside the Provisional Government, the government of bourgeoisie, another government has arisen, so far weak and incipient, but undoubtedly a government that actually exists and is growing— the Soviets of Workers’ and Soldiers’ Deputies. WHAT IS THE DUAL POWER?

Dual power was the system of power that Russia had following the February Revolution.
During this revolution there were, almost, two revolutions: a middle-class revolution which led to the establishment of the Provisional Government and a working-class revolution which led to the establishment of the Petrograd Soviet. Neither could rule Russia without the other: The Provisional Government didn't have the support of the workers or the bulk of the military; the Soviet didn't have the support of the military officers or the middle classes. :D :D
