  • The Kpd and the Nsdap: a Sttjdy of the Relationship Between Political Extremes in Weimar Germany, 1923-1933 by Davis William
    THE KPD AND THE NSDAP: A STTJDY OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN POLITICAL EXTREMES IN WEIMAR GERMANY, 1923-1933 BY DAVIS WILLIAM DAYCOCK A thesis submitted for the degree of Ph.D. The London School of Economics and Political Science, University of London 1980 1 ABSTRACT The German Communist Party's response to the rise of the Nazis was conditioned by its complicated political environment which included the influence of Soviet foreign policy requirements, the party's Marxist-Leninist outlook, its organizational structure and the democratic society of Weimar. Relying on the Communist press and theoretical journals, documentary collections drawn from several German archives, as well as interview material, and Nazi, Communist opposition and Social Democratic sources, this study traces the development of the KPD's tactical orientation towards the Nazis for the period 1923-1933. In so doing it complements the existing literature both by its extension of the chronological scope of enquiry and by its attention to the tactical requirements of the relationship as viewed from the perspective of the KPD. It concludes that for the whole of the period, KPD tactics were ambiguous and reflected the tensions between the various competing factors which shaped the party's policies. 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS PAGE abbreviations 4 INTRODUCTION 7 CHAPTER I THE CONSTRAINTS ON CONFLICT 24 CHAPTER II 1923: THE FORMATIVE YEAR 67 CHAPTER III VARIATIONS ON THE SCHLAGETER THEME: THE CONTINUITIES IN COMMUNIST POLICY 1924-1928 124 CHAPTER IV COMMUNIST TACTICS AND THE NAZI ADVANCE, 1928-1932: THE RESPONSE TO NEW THREATS 166 CHAPTER V COMMUNIST TACTICS, 1928-1932: THE RESPONSE TO NEW OPPORTUNITIES 223 CHAPTER VI FLUCTUATIONS IN COMMUNIST TACTICS DURING 1932: DOUBTS IN THE ELEVENTH HOUR 273 CONCLUSIONS 307 APPENDIX I VOTING ALIGNMENTS IN THE REICHSTAG 1924-1932 333 APPENDIX II INTERVIEWS 335 BIBLIOGRAPHY 341 4 ABBREVIATIONS 1.

  • Chapter Thirty-Six German Imperialism and the Working Class (March 1912) Karl Radek
    Chapter Thirty-Six German Imperialism and the Working Class (March 1912) Karl Radek Karl Bernardovich Radek (1885–1939) was born Karl Sobelsohn in Lvov (then in the Polish part of Austria-Hungary) to a Jewish family. He was active in socialist circles from the age of sixteen, joining the Social-Democratic Party of the Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania. In 1904, he moved to Switzerland, but, the following year, he returned to Poland to partici- pate in revolutionary activity in Warsaw. After a brief prison-term, Radek spent the next decade working as a Social-Democratic publicist in both Poland and Ger- many. Together with Anton Pannekoek, he became one of the two main spokesmen of the Bremen left wing grouped around the Bremer Bürger- Zeitung. His criticisms so irritated leading socialists that he was successively expelled from the Polish and the German Social-Democratic Parties. During the First World War, Radek returned to Switzerland, where he became Lenin’s main ally in the Zimmerwald Left. After the overthrow of the Tsar in February 1917, Radek accompanied Lenin in the ‘sealed train’ across Germany, but was not allowed to enter Russia. He then spent several months in Stockholm organising Bolshevik support among European socialists, and, after the Bolshevik Revolution in October 1917, he moved to Moscow. There, he became responsible 524 • Karl Radek for foreign-language propaganda, accompanying Leon Trotsky to Brest- Litovsk although he opposed the treaty and supported the Left-Communist opposition. At the end of 1918, after the collapse of the imperial régime in Germany, Radek returned to Berlin in order to help organise the German Communist Party.

References to the studies that reveal Trotsky's falsehoods and conspiracies are included in the article. The present article demonstrates how this evidence changes the conventional understanding of the assassina- tions of some Trotskyists at the hands of the Soviet NKVD and Spanish communists, during the Spanish Civil War. A brief chronology of the Barcelona May Days revolt of 1937 is appended. During the past several decades evidence has come to light which proves that Leon Trotsky lied a great deal in order to cover up his conspiracies against the Stalin regime in the USSR. In 1980 and subsequent years Pierre Broué, the foremost Trotskyist historian in the world at the time, discovered that Trotsky approved the “bloc of Rights and Trotskyites,” whose existence was the most important charge in the Moscow Trials, and had maintained contact with clandestine supporters with whom he publicly claimed to have broken ties. Arch Getty discovered that Trotsky had specifically contacted, among others, Karl Radek, while he and Radek continued to attack each other in public.

  • Rosa Luxemburg in the German Revolution a Chronicle
    I really Rosa Luxemburg in hopethe German Revolution A Chronicle UWE SONNENBERG to die JÖRN SCHÜTRUMPF at my postROSA LUXEMBURG Rosa Luxemburg in the German Revolution A Chronicle UWE SONNENBERG JÖRN SCHÜTRUMPF PREFACE PREFACE Mathilde Jacob, the closest confidante of Rosa Luxemburg and Leo Jogiches, described the Revolutionary Days of 1918–19 as follows: “Rosa did nothing without his advice, they had political discussions with each other almost every day...” Originally, Luxemburg and Jogiches had also been privately linked, and up until Luxemburg’s assassination on 15 January 1919, they not only continued their partnership politically, but also constituted an exception among the leaders of the Spartacus League: they were the only two to have experienced a revolution. In 1905–06 they had thrown themselves into the conflict in the Russian-occupied area of Poland, and had prepared analyses of what they had witnessed. What had reached Germany, however, was Rosa Luxemburg’s call for the use of the mass strike as a political weapon, not least to avert war. All other texts that assessed the revolution had been published in Polish, and hardly any of Luxemburg’s supporters in Germany had noticed them during the post-revolutionary years of the depression. Rosa Luxemburg knew that when the forces of the first onslaught were exhausted, every revolution would inevitably suffer a setback. In her analysis of the Russian Revolution of 1905–06, she had come to the conclusion that the further the revolution had advanced from political to social upheaval, the less significant this setback would be. Should the counterrevolutionary side be put under sufficient pressure, it would prefer a secure compromise—with the rule of law and parliamentary democracy—to an uncertain triumph.

  • Communism and Insurrection
    chapter 3 Communism and Insurrection Introduction The Communist Party of Germany (KPD)1 was formed at a congress held between 30 December 1918 and 1 January 1919 out of two divergent compo- nents: the Spartacus League and the Bremen and Hamburg Left Radicals. The Spartacists, the most prominent of whom were Rosa Luxemburg2 and Karl Liebknecht,3 emerged from the left wing of pre-war Social Democracy. When a section of the Party broke with official Social Democracy in 1917 over its continued support for the German war effort, and formed the rival Independent Social Democratic Party of Germany (USPD) the Spartacists decided to join that group. The Left Radicals, led at this time by Karl Radek4 and Johann Knief,5 thought this was a mistake. They considered that a sepa- rate communist party should be set up, on the lines of the Bolshevik Party in Russia, and they were already using the word ‘communist’ in the name of their group, the International Communists of Germany (IKD) which was set up on 23 November 1918. Both sides, the Spartacists and the Left Radicals, were enthusiastic about the October Revolution in Russia, and both wanted some- thing similar in Germany, but they had different views about the way to get there. The Spartacist leaders, Rosa Luxemburg above all, thought the coming 1 The Party in fact bore the title KPD (S) (Communist Party of Germany (Spartacus League) for the first two years of its existence. See note 15 for further name-changes. 2 Rosa Luxemburg (1870–1919), eminent Marxist theorist and revolutionary prominent on the left of the SPD before 1914, founder-member of the Spartacus League 1916, led the KPD for some weeks until her murder in January 1919 by officers of the Free Corps.

  • The Historical Origins of the Soviet Doctrine of Peaceful Coexistence
    THE HISTORICAL ORIGINS OF THE SOVIET DOCTRINE OF PEACEFUL COEXISTENCE WARREN LERNmE The history of the doctrine of "peaceful coexistence" in Soviet foreign policy is inseparable from the history of the doctrine of "world revolution." Throughout its history, the Soviet regime has acknowledged fealty to both doctrines but varied the public support for one or the other doctrine according to the objective conditions of the time. Both doctrines lend themselves to sweeping and varied definitions and defy standard descripton. However, for the purposes of this discussion, I have taken the liberty of assigning the following broad definitions to each doctrine: "Peaceful co- existence," within the Soviet experience, is the policy which acknowledges the exist- ence of societies antagonistic to the Soviet regime without regarding the destruction of these societies as the immediate goal of the Soviet state. By the same token, "world revolution" may be defined as a policy based on the premise that since Communist society cannot be secure in a "capitalist encirclement," the primary goal of the Soviet state becomes the destruction of the "capitalist encirclement" and the governments which compose it. There has generally been a historical interaction between these two doctrines in Soviet foreign policy, with the result usually that the practice of one of these doctrines has been downgraded in order to facilitate the practice of the other at any given time. Since 1956, "peaceful coexistence" has enjoyed a rather intensified promotion in Soviet pronouncements on foreign affairs and has officially been proclaimed as the cornerstone of Soviet foreign policy. At the same time, the very term "world revolution" has been eschewed, and except for avowals of faith in the determinist view of the march of history such as Khrushchev's celebrated remark, "Your grand- children will live under socialism," the concept has not been directly promoted.

  • Introductory Essay
    Ryan Moore Chief Editor, Design and Layout Anthony Mullan Editor Kenneth Nyirady Editor David Ducey Copy Editor Diane Schug-O’Neill Digital Images Charles Peterson Cataloging Librarian Tammy Wong Cataloging Librarian Geography and Map Division Library of Congress Washington, D.C. Summer 2017 Acknowledgements The content of this Internet-based publication has been distilled from a much a larger work that will set out to describe each of the maps in greater detail for the non- Russian reader, and hopefully, furnish researchers with more substantial information on both the organization and individuals who compiled the set. Getting the project down to a more digestible level for the Library’s website, however, required a considerable skill set in cutting and slicing never honed by the author. He, therefore, relied upon Mr. Ryan Moore, Cartographic Specialist in the Geography and Map Division, who also serves as the division’s de facto editor-in-chief, to carve the excess weight in order to expose the figure therein. Mr. Moore’s efforts have been invaluable in bringing this project to completion. Also to be thanked is Mr. Anthony Mullan, a former Cartographic Reference Specialist in the Geography and Map Division, who read the entire manuscript thoughtfully and offered helpful suggestions on various topics concerning art and maps. I would also like to thank my research assistant in Moscow, Ms. Svetlana Chervonnaya, who was able to visit the Russian national archives and obtain access to records oftentimes off limits to foreigners. Ms. Chervonnaya’s research brought to light some information on Aleksandr Nikolaievich De-Lazari, one of the maps’ two principal cartographers; he was a compelling figure in his own right.
