Among the leading theoreticians of the more powerful German movement were <a href="/wiki/Antonie_Pannekoek" class="mw-redirect" title="Antonie Pannekoek">Antonie Pannekoek</a> and <a href="/wiki/Herman_Gorter" title="Herman Gorter">Herman Gorter</a> and German activists found refuge in the Netherlands after the <a href="/wiki/Nazi_Party" title="Nazi Party">Nazis</a> came to power in 1933. The critique of <a href="/wiki/Social_democracy" title="Social democracy">social democratic</a> <a href="/wiki/Reformism" title="Reformism">reformism</a> can be traced back before World War I since in the Netherlands a revolutionary wing of social democracy had broken from the reformist party even before the war and had built links with German activists. By 1915, the <a href="/wiki/Antinational_Socialist_Party" title="Antinational Socialist Party">Antinational Socialist Party</a> was founded by <a href="/wiki/Franz_Pfemfert" title="Franz Pfemfert">Franz Pfemfert</a> and was linked to <i><a href="/wiki/Die_Aktion" title="Die Aktion">Die Aktion</a></i>.<sup id="cite_ref-Taylor_13-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Taylor-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> After the beginning of the <a href="/wiki/German_Revolution" class="mw-redirect" title="German Revolution">German Revolution</a> in 1918, a leftist mood could be found among sections of the communist parties of both countries. In Germany, this led directly to the foundation of the <a href="/wiki/Communist_Workers_Party_of_Germany" class="mw-redirect" title="Communist Workers Party of Germany">Communist Workers Party of Germany</a> (KAPD) after its leading figures were expelled from the <a href="/wiki/Communist_Party_of_Germany" title="Communist Party of Germany">Communist Party of Germany</a> (KPD) by <a href="/wiki/Paul_Levi" title="Paul Levi">Paul Levi</a>. This development was mirrored in the Netherlands and on a smaller scale in <a href="/wiki/Bulgaria" title="Bulgaria">Bulgaria</a>, where the left communist movement was to mimic that of Germany. </p><p>When it was founded, the KAPD included some tens of thousands of revolutionaries. However, it had broken up and practically dissolved within a few years. This was because it was founded on the basis of revolutionary optimism and a purism that rejected what became known as frontism. <a href="/wiki/Common_front" title="Common front">Frontism</a> entailed working in the same organisations as reformist workers. Such work was seen by the KAPD as unhelpful at a time when the revolution was thought to be an imminent event and not merely a goal to be aimed at. This led the members of the KAPD to reject working in the traditional <a href="/wiki/Trade_union" title="Trade union">trade unions</a> in favour of forming their own <a href="/wiki/General_Workers%27_Union_of_Germany" title="General Workers' Union of Germany">revolutionary unions</a>. These <i>unionen</i>, so called to distinguish them from the official trade unions, had 80,000 members in 1920 and peaked in 1921 with 200,000 members, after which they declined rapidly. They were also organisationally divided from the beginning, with those unionen linked to the KAPD forming the <a href="/wiki/General_Workers%27_Union_of_Germany" title="General Workers' Union of Germany">General Workers' Union of Germany</a> (AAUD) and those in <a href="/wiki/Saxony" title="Saxony">Saxony</a> around <a href="/wiki/Otto_R%C3%BChle" title="Otto Rühle">Otto Rühle</a> who opposed the conception of a party in favour of a unitary class organisation being organised as the <a href="/wiki/General_Workers%27_Union_%E2%80%93_Unified_Organization" class="mw-redirect" title="General Workers' Union – Unified Organization">General Workers' Union – Unified Organization</a> (AAUE). </p><p>The KAPD was unable to reach even its founding congress prior to suffering its first split when the so-called National Bolshevik tendency around <a href="/wiki/Fritz_Wolffheim" title="Fritz Wolffheim">Fritz Wolffheim</a> and <a href="/wiki/Heinrich_Laufenberg" title="Heinrich Laufenberg">Heinrich Laufenberg</a> appeared (this tendency has no connection with <a href="/wiki/National_Bolshevism" title="National Bolshevism">modern political tendencies in Russia which use the same name</a>). More seriously, the KAPD lost most of its support very rapidly as it failed to develop lasting structures. This also contributed to internecine quarrels and the party actually split into two competing tendencies known as the Essen and Berlin tendencies to the historians of the left. The recently established <a href="/wiki/Communist_Workers_International" class="mw-redirect" title="Communist Workers International">Communist Workers International</a> (KAI) split on exactly the same lines as did the tiny <a href="/wiki/Communist_Workers_Party_of_Bulgaria" class="mw-redirect" title="Communist Workers Party of Bulgaria">Communist Workers Party of Bulgaria</a>.

His main aim was to polemicise with currents moving towards pure revolutionary tactics by showing them that they could remain based on firmly revolutionary principles while utilising a variety of tactics.

In later years, the German–Dutch tradition in particular would come to see the suppression of the revolt as the historic turning point in the evolution of the Russian state after October 1917. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="1939–1945"><span id="1939.E2.80.931945"></span>1939–1945</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Left_communism&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: 1939–1945"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1251242444"><table class="box-Unreferenced plainlinks metadata ambox ambox-content ambox-Unreferenced" role="presentation"><tbody><tr><td class="mbox-image"><div class="mbox-image-div"><span typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:Question_book-new.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/50px-Question_book-new.svg.png" decoding="async" width="50" height="39" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/75px-Question_book-new.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/100px-Question_book-new.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="512" data-file-height="399" /></a></span></div></td><td class="mbox-text"><div class="mbox-text-span">This section <b>does not <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_sources" title="Wikipedia:Citing sources">cite</a> any <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability" title="Wikipedia:Verifiability">sources</a></b>.<span class="hide-when-compact"> Please help <a href="/wiki/Special:EditPage/Left_communism" title="Special:EditPage/Left communism">improve this section</a> by <a href="/wiki/Help:Referencing_for_beginners" title="Help:Referencing for beginners">adding citations to reliable sources</a>.

Despite having foreseen the war more clearly than some other factions, when it began they were overwhelmed. Many were persecuted by either German Nazism or Italian fascism. Leading militants of the communist left such as Mitchell, who was Jewish, were to die in the <a href="/wiki/Buchenwald" class="mw-redirect" title="Buchenwald">Buchenwald</a> concentration camp. </p><p>Meanwhile, the final <a href="/wiki/Council_communist" class="mw-redirect" title="Council communist">council communist</a> groups in Germany had disappeared in the maelstrom and the International Communist Group (GIK) in the Netherlands was moribund. The former <a href="/wiki/Centrist_Marxism" title="Centrist Marxism">centrist</a> group led by <a href="/wiki/Henk_Sneevliet" title="Henk Sneevliet">Henk Sneevliet</a> (the <a href="/wiki/Revolutionary_Socialist_Party_(Netherlands)" title="Revolutionary Socialist Party (Netherlands)">Revolutionary Socialist Workers Party, RSAP</a>) transformed itself into the <a href="/wiki/Marx%E2%80%93Lenin%E2%80%93Luxemburg_Front" title="Marx–Lenin–Luxemburg Front">Marx–Lenin–Luxemburg Front</a>. In April 1942, its leadership was arrested by the <a href="/wiki/Gestapo" title="Gestapo">Gestapo</a> and killed. The remaining activists then split into two camps as some turned to Trotskyism forming the Committee of Revolutionary Marxists (CRM) while the majority formed the CommunistenBond-Spartacus. The latter group turned to <a href="/wiki/Council_communism" title="Council communism">council communism</a> and was joined by most members of the GIK. </p><p>In 1941, the Italian fraction was reorganised in France and along with the new French Nucleus of the Communist Left came into conflict with the ideas which the fraction had propagated from 1936, namely of the social disappearance of the <a href="/wiki/Proletariat" title="Proletariat">proletariat</a> and localised wars and so on. These ideas continued to be defended by Vercesi in Brussels. Gradually, the left fractions adopted positions drawn from German left communism. They abandoned the conception that the Russian state remained in some way proletarian and also dropped Vercesi's conception of localised wars in favour of ideas on <a href="/wiki/Imperialism" title="Imperialism">imperialism</a> inspired by <a href="/wiki/Rosa_Luxemburg" title="Rosa Luxemburg">Rosa Luxemburg</a>. Vercesi's participation in a <a href="/wiki/Red_Cross" class="mw-redirect" title="Red Cross">Red Cross</a> committee was also fiercely contested. </p><p>The strike at FIAT in October 1942 had a huge impact on the Italian fraction, which was deepened by the fall of Mussolini's regime in July 1943. The Italian fraction now saw a pre-revolutionary situation opening in Italy and prepared to participate in the coming revolution. In 1943 the <a href="/wiki/Internationalist_Communist_Party_(Italy)" title="Internationalist Communist Party (Italy)">Internationalist Communist Party</a> was founded by <a href="/wiki/Onorato_Damen" title="Onorato Damen">Onorato Damen</a> and <a href="/w/index.php?title=Luciano_Stefanini&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Luciano Stefanini (page does not exist)">Luciano Stefanini</a>, amongst others. By 1945 the party had 5,000 members all over Italy with some supporters in France, Belgium and the US.<sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It published a <i>Manifesto of the Communist Left to the European Proletariat</i>, which called upon workers to put class war before national war.<sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In France, revived by Marco in Marseilles, the Italian fraction now worked closely with the new French fraction, which was formally founded in Paris in December 1944. However, in May 1945 the Italian fraction, many of whose members had already returned to Italy, voted to dissolve itself so that its militants could integrate themselves as individuals into the <a href="/wiki/Internationalist_Communist_Party_(Italy)" title="Internationalist Communist Party (Italy)">Internationalist Communist Party</a>. The conference at which this decision was made also refused to recognise the French fraction and expelled Marco from their group. </p><p>This led to a split in the French fraction and the formation of the <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1238216509">.mw-parser-output .vanchor>:target~.vanchor-text{background-color:#b1d2ff}@media screen{html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .vanchor>:target~.vanchor-text{background-color:#0f4dc9}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .vanchor>:target~.vanchor-text{background-color:#0f4dc9}}</style><span class="vanchor"><span id="GCF"></span><span class="vanchor-text">Gauche Communiste de France</span></span> (GCF) by the French fraction led by Marco. The history of the GCF belongs to the post-war period. Meanwhile, the former members of the French fraction who sympathised with Vercesi and the Internationalist Communist Party formed a new French fraction which published the journal <span title="French-language text"><i lang="fr">L'Etincelle</i></span> and was joined at the end of 1945 by the old minority of the fraction who had joined <span title="French-language text"><i lang="fr">L'Union Communiste</i></span> in the 1930s. </p><p>One other development during the war years merits mention at this point. A small grouping of German and Austrian militants came close to left communist positions in these years. Best known as the Revolutionary Communist Organisation, these young militants were exiles from <a href="/wiki/Nazism" title="Nazism">Nazism</a> living in France at the start of World War II and were members of the Trotskyist movement but they had opposed the formation of the <a href="/wiki/Fourth_International" title="Fourth International">Fourth International</a> in 1938 on the grounds that it was premature. They were refused full delegates' credentials and only admitted to the founding conference of the Youth International on the following day. They then joined <a href="/wiki/Hugo_Oehler" title="Hugo Oehler">Hugo Oehler</a>'s International Contact Commission for the Fourth (Communist) International and in 1939 were publishing <span title="German-language text"><i lang="de">Der Marxist</i></span> in <a href="/wiki/Antwerp" title="Antwerp">Antwerp</a>. </p><p>With the beginning of the war, they took the name Revolutionary Communists of Germany (RKD) and came to define Russia as state capitalist in agreement with Ante Ciliga's book <i>The Russian Enigma</i>. At this point, they adopted a revolutionary defeatist position on the war and condemned Trotskyism for its critical defence of Russia (which was seen by Trotskyists as a <a href="/wiki/Degenerated_workers%27_state" title="Degenerated workers' state">degenerated workers' state</a>). After the fall of France, they renewed contact with militants in the Trotskyist milieu in Southern France and recruited some of them into the <span title="French-language text"><i lang="fr">Communistes Revolutionnaires</i></span> (CR) in 1942. This group became known as <span title="French-language text"><i lang="fr">Fraternisation Proletarienne</i></span> in 1943 and then <span title="French-language text"><i lang="fr">L'Organisation Communiste Revolutionnaire</i></span> in 1944. The CR and RKD were autonomous and clandestine, but worked closely together with shared politics. As the war ran its course, they evolved in a councilist direction while also identifying more and more with Luxemburg's work. They also worked with the French Fraction of the Communist Left and seem to have disintegrated at the end of the war. This disintegration was sped no doubt by the capture of leading militant Karl Fischer, who was sent to the Buchenwald concentration camp where he was to participate in writing the <i>Declaration of the Internationalist Communists of Buchenwald</i> when the camp was liberated. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="1952–1968"><span id="1952.E2.80.931968"></span>1952–1968</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Left_communism&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: 1952–1968"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/Left_communism_in_China" title="Left communism in China">Left communism in China</a> and <a href="/wiki/Shengwulian" title="Shengwulian">Shengwulian</a></div> <p>The year 1952 signalled the end of mass influence on the part of Italian left communism as its sole remaining representative, the Internationalist Communist Party, split in two sections: the group led by Bordiga took the name <a href="/wiki/International_Communist_Party" title="International Communist Party">International Communist Party</a>, while the group around Damen retained the name <a href="/wiki/Internationalist_Communist_Party_(Italy)" title="Internationalist Communist Party (Italy)">Internationalist Communist Party</a>.
