International Communism and the Spanish Civil War provides an
intimate picture of international communism in the Stalin era.
Exploring the transnational exchanges that occurred in
Soviet-structured spaces - from clandestine schools for training
international revolutionaries in Moscow to the International
Brigades in Spain - the book uncovers complex webs of interaction,
at once personal and political, that linked international
communists to one another and the Soviet Union. The Spanish Civil
War, which coincided with the great purges in the Soviet Union,
stands at the center of this grassroots history. For many
international communists, the war came to define both their life
histories and political commitments. In telling their individual
stories, the book calls attention to a central paradox of Stalinism
- the simultaneous celebration and suspicion of transnational
interactions - and illuminates the appeal of a cause that promised
solidarity even as it practiced terror.
