Opis

Paul Frölich was a key figure in the formative years of German Communism. From a working-class family, he was active in the Social Democratic Party from the late 1890s, a left radical opposed to the First World War, and a founder member of the KPD. His previously unpublished memoir, only recently discovered, casts valuable new light on a key period, particularly the Comintern intervention that led to the disastrous ‘March action’ of 1921. The text on which the present, slightly abridged edition is based was originally published in German as Im radikalen Lager: Politische Autobiographie 1890-1921, by BasisDruck Verlag GmbH, 2013, ISBN 978-3-86163-147-7. The Translation of this work was genourasly supported by The Hans Böckler Stiftung.
