  • A Contribution to the Identification of the Pseudonyms Used in the Minutes and Reports of the Communist International*
    VILEM KAHAN A CONTRIBUTION TO THE IDENTIFICATION OF THE PSEUDONYMS USED IN THE MINUTES AND REPORTS OF THE COMMUNIST INTERNATIONAL* The historian who studies the history of the Comintern has to rely mainly on printed sources. For this purpose the published minutes and reports of the seven Congresses of the Comintern (1919-35) and the thirteen plenary sessions of its Executive Committee (1922-33) are of particular interest. The use of these minutes and reports is rendered difficult by the fact that a number of the participants did not act under their real name, respectively under the assumed one they made use of permanently, but under pseudo- nyms. The pseudonyms that were used over a long period cause hardly any problem (e.g., the pseudonym Karski, which was used by Julian Marchlewski already from the 1890's). These pseudonyms are generally known. Little is known, however, about those chosen ad hoc. Up to now no systematic attempt has been made to decipher them. The results of my research, summarized in the following list, show that such an attempt certainly is not hopeless. The list contains all the pseudo- nyms occurring in the minutes and reports that I have been able to identify. I have confined my study to the pseudonyms of persons who spoke or were elected on a commission; so I have not taken into account the pseudonyms that occur only on the lists of participants. In general, I have made use of the German version; for the 9th ECCI plenum the report in English was consulted, for the 1 lth, 12th and 13th plenary sessions the Russian version of the minutes was used.

Anhand des von mir auf- gefundenen und ausgewerteten gedruckten und ungedruckten Quellenmaterials kann dies in der ASB-Historiographie vervollständigt werden. Die Spaltung der Arbeiterbewegung in der Weimarer Zeit in einen revolutionä- ren und einen reformistischen Teil fand ihren Niederschlag auch in der politi- schen Ausrichtung der einzelnen Arbeiter-Samariter-Gruppierungen. Die anhal- tende Unnachgiebigkeit der sozialdemokratisch-reformistischen Ausrichtung des ASB-Bundesvorstandes gegenüber linksorientierten Mitgliedern führte zur Gründung einer separaten, oppositionellen Arbeitersamariter-Organisation, den Proletarischen Gesundheitsdienst (PGD).

ARTICLE THE BOYS’ OWN PAPERS: THE CASE OF GERMAN POW CAMP NEWSPAPERS IN BRITAIN, 1946-8 Ingeborg F. Hellen I. Context From 1939 to 1948 the number of German POWs and their camps in Britain fluctuated greatly. Until March 1944, because of the invasion threat, they never exceeded 1,854 men. Whereas the influx of Italian POWs reached a peak of 157,000 by 1943, after March 1944 the num- ber of Germans rose to 402,000. Most of these were repatriated by © Ingeborg F.

  • Left-Wing Splinter Parties in the Weimar Republic
    LEFT-WING SPLINTER PARTIES IN THE WEIMAR REPUBLIC by FREDERICK ALFRED MILLER B. A., University of British Columbis, 1970 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENT FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in the Department of History WE ACCEPT THIS THESIS AS CONFORMING TO THE REQUIRED STANDARD THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA January, 197^ In presenting this thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that the Library shall make it freely available for reference and study. I further agree that permission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the Head of my Department or by his representatives. It is understood that copying or publication of this thesis for financial gain shall not be allowed without my written permission. Depa rtment The University of British Columbia Vancouver 8, Canada ABSTRACT This study deals with left-wing splinter parties -> whi'ch were in existence in Germany between jtg&8 and 1933. In 1918 the Second Empire collapsed, the Kaiser abdicated, and the imperial government resigned. Only the socialists were relatively strong enough and, in the eyes of the public and the victorious Allies, unblemished enough to take com• mand of the state. At this historical moment, however, the socialists were divided. The chance to ih's$»3Q,Isocialism in Germany was lost due to the bitter fighting among the three principal left-wing parties. The divisions in the socialist camp, which had started earlier, but which broke into open warfare at the end of the Great War, were intensified by the crises the Weimar Republic faced and led to a great number of splinter parties.

    The International Newsletter of Communist Studies XVII (2011), no. 24 110 IV.3 INSTITUTIONAL STUDIES Gleb J. Albert BGHS, Bielefeld University, Germany Think Tank, Publisher, Symbol: The Comintern in the Early Soviet Media Landscape* Abstract: The following short article sheds light on the periodicals published by the Communist International in Soviet Russia and the Soviet Union during the 1920s. Embedding its ventures into the wider context of Soviet press, the article not only adds a forgotten chapter to the history of Comintern press, but traces the ways by which the international organisation tried to partake in the early Soviet media landscape. The activity of the Communist International (Comintern) as a “global player” is fairly well researched thanks to the opening of the archives in post-Soviet Russia. The wide and deep structures of the Comintern, including its most arcane and classified activities, have been meticulously researched in both the East and West.1 Yet one question has yet to receive the attention of scholars: how did the Comintern act and how was it perceived within its host country, Soviet Russia? We know from contemporary accounts and works of fiction that the Communist International was an important symbolic figure and projection screen in revolutionary Russia, especially in the first years of its existence. However, this aspect of the Comintern’s history will be addressed elsewhere2. This paper will deal, in a concise form, with the tangible activities of the Comintern within the Soviet field of politics from the organisation’s foundation in 1919, throughout the 1920’s, until the consolidation of Stalinism.
