The Tenth National Congress, 1929
Collection: The Political Culture of British Communism, 1920-1991 Volumes The Tenth National Congress, 1929
This volume hosts material from the Communist Party of Great Britain’s (CPGB) Tenth National Congress. Much of the focus is on the new policy of ‘Class Against Class’ disseminated to satellite parties from the Stalinised Comintern. This new line of thinking dictated that social democratic parties were just as bad as fascists in their advocation of capitalism and therefore must be resisted in the same way.
