The Conference was the first and in some ways only opportunity that communists in Latin America had to engage in a broad discussion of the most important problems and challenges that they faced. The topics that the assembled delegates addressed – including militarism, anti-imperialism, trade union issues, and racial discrimination – were all central to the question of how to organise a strong revolutionary movement.     This major documentary collection of the Latin American Communist movement, newly translated into English and with a substantial introduction, remains surprisingly relevant to our world today.     With an introduction by Victor Jeifets and Lazar Jeifets.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbbreviations  Biographies of Conference Participants    Introduction: The Outcomes of Ten Years of Latin American Communism   Victor Jeifets and Lazar Jeifets    Part 1 Descriptions of the Conference    Introduction to Part 1    1 The First Latin American Communist Conference    2 First Latin American Communist Conference    3 Issues Addressed at the First Latin American Communist Conference    4 Towards the Latin American Communist Conference    5 Bibliography for the First Latin American Communist Conference    6 Parties Represented at the First Latin American Communist Conference    7 The Latin American Revolutionary Movement    Part 2 Background Documents    Introduction to Part 2    1 The First Session of the South American Secretariat of the Communist International    2 Questions of the Latin American Countries    3 Draft Theses on the Revolutionary Movement in Latin America    4 Report from the SP of the EC of the PSRC to the ECCI    5 Letter from the CI to the Revolutionary Socialist Party of Colombia    6 Colombia, 27 May 1929, Morning Session    7 Meeting with the Colombian Delegate    8 Mexico    9 Conversation with the Peruvian Delegates    10 The Importance of the First Latin American Communist Conference    Part 3 Proceedings and Resolutions    Introduction to Part 3    1 Foreword    2 Conference Opening (1 June 1929)    3 The International Situation in Latin America and the Threat of War   Second Session, 2 June 1929   Third Session, 2 June 1929   Fourth Session, 2 June 1929    4 Resolution on the International Situation in Latin America and the Threat of War    5 The Anti-Imperialist Struggle and Tactical Issues Facing Communist Parties in Latin America   Fifth and Sixth Sessions, 3 June 1929   Seventh Session, 4 June 1929   Eighth Session, 4 June 1929   Ninth Session, 4 June 1929   Tenth Session, 5 June 1929   Eleventh Session, 5 June 1929    6 Resolution on the Tactics of the Communist Parties of Latin America    7 Trade Union Issues   Twelfth Session, 6 June 1929    8 Resolution on the Tasks of the Communist Parties in the Latin American Trade Union Movement    9 Agrarian Issues    10 Peasant Issues   Thirteenth Session, 7 June 1929   Fourteenth Session, 7 June 1929   Fifteenth Session, 7 June 1929    11 Resolution on Peasant Issues in Latin America    12 Racial Problems in Latin America   Sixteenth Session, 8 June 1929   Seventeenth Session, 8 June 1929    13 Resolution on Racial Problems in Latin America    14 Racial Problems    15 Work of the Anti-Imperialist League   Eighteenth Session, 10 June 1929    16 Resolution on the Work of the Anti-Imperialist Leagues    17 The Youth Movement and the Tasks of Communist Parties   Nineteenth Session, 10 June 1929    18 Draft Thesis on the Tasks of the Party in the Youth Movement    19 Organisational Matters    20 Resolution on Organisational Matters of the Communist Parties in Latin America    21 Work of the South American Secretariat   Twentieth Session, 12 June 1929    22 Report on the Solution to the Crisis in the Communist Party of Argentina    23 Resolution on the Solution to the Crisis of the Communist Party of Argentina    24 Theses on Women’s Issues    25 Communists and the International Red Aid    Part 4 Conversations After the Conference    Introduction to Part 4    1 Conversation with the Delegates from Mexico    2 Conversation with the Delegations from Guatemala and El Salvador    3 Conversation with the Colombian Delegation    4 Second Conversation with the Colombian Delegation    5 Conversation with the Peruvian Delegates    6 Conversation with the Delegation of Peru    7 South American Secretariat    Bibliography  Index","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53210869236055,"sku":"9789004548510","price":231.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-latin-american-revolutionary-movement-proceedings-of-the-first-latin-american-communist-conference-june-1929-9789004548510","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
