This series brings together documents, reports, and speeches by working-class political leaders who fought in the early decades of the twentieth century to oppose imperialist war by organizing the working class and farmers to overthrow their capitalist rulers.
The series begins with debates in the working-class movement over war, colonialism, and reform and revolution in the years leading up to the First World War and the Russian revolution. Later volumes take up the Russian revolution itself, the postwar revolutionary upsurge in Germany, the first two congresses of the Communist International, and the Congress of the Peoples of the East, held in Baku, Azerbaijan, in 1920.
Much of the material appears in print in English for the first time.
Each volume includes photos, annotation, a glossary, a chronology, and an index.
“This is the definitive version. Should be in all academic libraries.”—Choice
“Brings together an excellent choice of important and revealing documents.… The entire series will be important resources for any library of twentieth-century history.”—Robert V. Daniels, editor, A Documentary History of Communism
