Trotsky’s Comintern Conspiracy – The Case of Osip Pyatnitsky

Trotsky’s Comintern Conspiracy – The Case of Osip Pyatnitsky by Grover Furr and Vladimir L. Bobrov (2024, Erythros Press and Media, 389 pp.)

Reviewed by Charles Andrews

Osip Pyatnitsky was the secretary of the executive committee of the Communist International, often called the Comintern, from 1923 to 1935, when he was replaced by Georgi Dimitrov. Pyatnitsky’s tenure thus runs from the middle 1920s, when the Communist Party of the Soviet Union debated socialist industrialization at length and agreed on it, to the first seven years of implementing the policy.
