| Sumario: | "International Communism and the Spanish Civil War provides an intimate picture of international communism in the Stalin era. Exploring the transnational exchanges that occurred in Soviet-structured spaces--from clandestine schools for training international revolutionaries in Moscow to the International Brigades in Spain--the book uncovers complex webs of interaction, at once personal and political, that linked international communists to one another and the Soviet Union.
