Left-Wing Communism An Infantile Disorder

Left-Wing Communism is a Handbook of Communist Party strategy and tactics of Communist leadership and the building of a mass party. It was written in 1920 at the time of the 2nd Congress of the Communist International in order to correct the “leftist” mistakes being made by Communists in a number of countries.Lenin draws on the experiences of the Russian Bolsheviks as a guide for the world Communist movement.The Bolshevik Party the points out grew strong and became steeled not only in the fight against opportunism but also in the fight against “petty-bourgeois leftism.” – Maurice Cornforth.
