Bolshevik Leadership

As a successful revolutionary party possessing immense moral authority over the International, the Bolsheviks used their own experience in Russia to guide the delegates. In the underdeveloped world, for instance, they stressed the importance of forming an alliance with the peasantry, as they had tried to do in Russia.

Comintern agents were sent to various countries to foment revolution, generally without much success.

Béla Kun

* * *

Among the most widely known of the Comintern’s agents was the Hungarian revolutionary Béla Kun (1886–1938). Kun was a prominent figure in the Hungarian Soviet Republic, formed in 1919. However, the Republic never controlled more than a third of Hungary’s territory, and it collapsed after less than five months. Kun later took part in the governing of Crimea. During Stalin’s purge trials in the 1930s he was tried for treason and shot.
