This volume offers a new perspective on the political history of
the socialist, communist and alternative political Lefts, focusing
on the role of networks and transnational connections. Embedding
the history of left-wing internationalism into a new political
history approach, it accounts for global and transnational turns in
the study of left-wing politics. The essays in this collection
study a range of examples of international engagement and
transnational cooperation in which left-wing actors were involved,
and explore how these interactions shaped the globalization of
politics throughout the 20th century. In taking a multi-archival
and methodological approach, this book challenges two conventional
views - that the left gradually abandoned its original
international to focus exclusively on the national framework, and
that internationalism survived merely as a rhetorical device.
Instead, this collection highlights how different currents of the
Left developed their own versions of internationalism in order to
adapt to the transformation of politics in the interdependent
20th-century world. Demonstrating the importance of political
convergence, alliance-formation, network construction and knowledge
circulation within and between the socialist and communist
movements, it shows that the influence of internationalism is
central to understanding the foreign policy of various left-wing
parties and movements.
