Rethinking International Communism

项目摘要

The principal aims of this network are:1. To challenge existing interpretations of international communist organisation and activity.2. To establish the basis for a longer-term, multi-disciplinary analysis of international communism in this period.3. To disseminate the work of the Network as widely as possible, and in ways that affect public perception of international communist history in the UK and beyond.This network aims to bring historians of the Communist International together with scholars in cognate fields of study to reassess the history of international communism in the era of the two world wars. These are exciting times in Communist studies. One hundred years after the founding of the Communist International (Comintern), historians are putting aside long-held assumptions regarding the organisation and functioning of the Comintern, and asking new questions of the Bolshevik-inspired organisation, informed by new cultural-inspired agendas, and most notably by the recent trend in transnational history which have highlighted the roles of communists in pivotal campaigns (anti-colonialism, anti-racism, environmentalism, cultural, female emancipation) - many of which have left a more lasting legacy than communist ideology.In a field long dominated by Cold War ideologies and by a monolithic interpretation of international communism which focussed principally upon the political and organisational links binding peripheral national Communist parties to Moscow, new cultural and transnational research agendas are opening up ground-breaking areas of study. In place of the well-worn debates over the degree or otherwise of Moscow's control over the apparatus of the Communist International, this research network will extend our understanding of a truly global and multi-centred Communist political movement, one deeply embedded in the political, cultural and social struggles of the era. The ultimate aim of the network is to provide a platform for the dissemination of this new research into the history of international communism, to build new multi-disciplinary research networks, and to foster and support the research of less-established researchers and academics in the field. This network will unite historians currently undertaking research on the Comintern, and connect them to scholars working on related topics of transnational activism and colonial history to deepen and to enrich the existing debate. It will provide an opportunity to take stock of recent developments in the historical literature and to discuss future pathways for this dynamic new history. Accordingly, the project will bring together an international group of researchers, including those at postgraduate and early-career level, in a series of workshops, culminating in a two-day conference. Public events, developed in cooperation with organisations such as the Marx Memorial Library, London, will connect this new research paradigm with a wider interested general public.An international and interdisciplinary research network is a necessity for this work, given the range of expertise (for example of different languages and archival resources) and knowledge of different case-studies required. Accordingly, the network will bring together scholars whose work is unpicking the foundations of what we know about international communism, to foster a more nuanced understanding of how it worked and the wider impacts it has had.

该网络的主要目标是：1。挑战现有的对国际共产主义组织和活动的解释。为这一时期国际共产主义的长期、多学科分析奠定基础。尽可能广泛地传播该网络的工作，并以影响英国及其他地区公众对国际共产主义历史的看法的方式传播。该网络旨在将共产国际的历史学家与相关研究领域的学者聚集在一起，重新评估两次世界大战时期国际共产主义的历史。这是共产主义研究中激动人心的时刻。共产国际成立一百年后（共产国际），历史学家们正在把关于共产国际的组织和运作的长期假设放在一边，并对布尔什维克启发的组织提出新的问题，这些问题受到新的文化启发的议程的影响，最值得注意的是最近跨国历史的趋势，这些趋势强调了共产主义者在关键运动中的作用。（反殖民主义、反种族主义、环境保护主义、文化、女性解放）--其中许多比共产主义意识形态留下了更持久的遗产。在一个长期被冷战意识形态和对国际共产主义的单一解释所主导的领域，这种解释主要集中在将周边国家共产党与莫斯科联系在一起的政治和组织联系上，新的文化和跨国研究议程正在开辟开创性的研究领域。这个研究网络将取代关于莫斯科对共产国际机器的控制程度或其他方面的老生常谈的辩论，扩展我们对一个真正全球性和多中心的共产主义政治运动的理解，一个深深嵌入时代政治，文化和社会斗争的运动。该网络的最终目的是为传播国际共产主义史的新研究提供一个平台，建立新的多学科研究网络，并促进和支持该领域较不成熟的研究人员和学者的研究。该网络将联合目前正在研究共产国际的历史学家，并将他们与研究跨国行动主义和殖民历史相关主题的学者联系起来，以深化和丰富现有的辩论。它将提供一个机会来评估历史文献的最新发展，并讨论这一动态新历史的未来道路。因此，该项目将召集一批国际研究人员，包括研究生和职业初期的研究人员，举办一系列讲习班，最后举行为期两天的会议。与伦敦马克思纪念图书馆等组织合作开发的公共活动将把这一新的研究范式与更广泛的感兴趣的公众联系起来。鉴于所需的专业知识范围（例如不同语言和档案资源）和不同案例研究的知识，国际和跨学科研究网络是这项工作的必要条件。因此，该网络将汇集学者，他们的工作是破坏我们对国际共产主义的了解的基础，以促进对它如何运作及其产生的更广泛影响的更细致的理解。
