| | | | History of communism: Encyclopedia II - Marxist philosophy of nature - Basic Overview The basic Marxist idea is that everything can be explained by one thing -- Matter. Matter is the total explanation for space, nature, man, psychic conciousness, human intelligence and every other aspect of existence. Marxism then assigns the task of knowing all truth to science. If science can get to know everything about matter, then it can get to know about everything. Conclusively, matter is accepted as the beginning and ending of all reality. Taking the concept of matter, Marxism then sets forth to answer three quesions: What is the orig ...

| | | | History of communism: Encyclopedia II - Criticisms of communism - 20th century Communist states Communism is a social system that abolishes private property, social classes, and the state itself. As such, a "communist state" would be an oxymoron. No country or government ever called itself a "Communist state"; however, various states gave the Communist Party a special status in their constitution and laws[1], while claiming to be heading in the direction of communism. The term "Communist state" has been coined and used in the West to refer to s ...

| | | | History of communism: Encyclopedia II - World Communist Movement - Western Europe During the Cold War years, CPs existed in all European countries, except for the ministates Andorra, Liechtenstein and the Vatican. In Iceland, communists had opted for participation in a broader party, the Alþýðubandalagið.
In Southern Europe, CPs emerged as major political forces during these years. In Italy, San Marino and France CPs competed for government power in the electoral processes. In Spain, Portugal and Greece, CPs formed the backbone of resistance to the repressive right-wing dictatorships, and after the downfall of these regimes the CPs became a ...

| | | | History of communism: Encyclopedia II - Maoism - Maoist theory Unlike the earlier forms of Marxism-Leninism in which the urban proletariat was seen as the main source of revolution, and the countryside was largely ignored, Mao focused on the peasantry as a revolutionary force which, he said, could be mobilized by a Communist Party with their knowledge and leadership. The model for this was of course the Chinese Communist rural insurgency of the 1920s and 1930s, which eventually brought the Communist Party of China to power. Furthermore, unlike other forms of Marxism-Leninism in which large-scale industr ...

| | | | History of communism: Encyclopedia II - Left communism - Italian Left Communism 1926-1939 After 1926, Italian Left Communism took shape in exile and without the participation of Bordiga. Contacts between the Italians and the Germans had been made and were developed in France, but the Italian Left saw the KAPD's stress on factory organisation as being similar to the ideas of Gramsci's L'Ordine Nuovo and therefore rejected closer contact. Attempts to work with the group around Karl Korsch also failed. The Left Fraction of the PCd'I was formally established in July 1927 by a number of young militants. This new group had members in F ...

| | | | History of communism: Encyclopedia II - Comintern - Origins of the Communist International The origins of the Communist International are to be found in the split in the workers' movement that surfaced in 1914 with the beginning of the First World War, although divisions between revolutionary and reformist minded elements had been developing for some considerable time. For example, as far back as 1899, reformist or right wing elements in the socialist movement had supported the entry of French socialist Millerand into the government of the day. On the other hand, revolutionary or left wing elements were fiercely opposed to this de ...
