Description

The 'Red International of Labour Unions' (RILU) was a central instrument for the spreading of international communism during the inter-war period. This comprehensive history, based on extensive research in the former communist archives in Moscow and East Berlin, sheds significant light on the international trade union movement of the period, tracing the evolution of RILU from its origins to dissolution.
