Isidoro Acevedo (communist)
Isidoro Acevedo (born Isidoro Rodríguez González; 2 January 1867 in Luanco, Spain – 1952 in Moscow, Russia) was a Spanish politician, trade unionist, activist and writer who participated in the founding of the Communist Party of Spain. Acevedo began working as a typographer's apprentice at the age of thirteen in Madrid, where he had moved with his family three years before. In 1898, he moved to Santander, where he became president of the Socialist Federation. Because he had a major role within the party, highlighted by his debate as a socialist representative against anarchist Emilio Carral, he was called upon by the socialists of Bilbao to be the editor of the newspaper ''La Lucha de Clases'' (Spanish: ''The Class Struggle''). He was imprisoned several times because of his articles. In 1914, he returned to Asturias, where he edited ''La Aurora Social''. He was arrested in 1917 for his participation in the revolutionary strike of that year. In 1921, as a delegate of the Astu ...

Communist International
The Communist International (Comintern), also known as the Third International, was a Soviet-controlled international organization founded in 1919 that advocated world communism. The Comintern resolved at its Second Congress to "struggle by all available means, including armed force, for the overthrow of the international bourgeoisie and the creation of an international Soviet republic as a transition stage to the complete abolition of the state". The Comintern was preceded by the 1916 dissolution of the Second International. The Comintern held seven World Congresses in Moscow between 1919 and 1935. During that period, it also conducted thirteen Enlarged Plenums of its governing Executive Committee, which had much the same function as the somewhat larger and more grandiose Congresses. Joseph Stalin, leader of the Soviet Union, dissolved the Comintern in 1943 to avoid antagonizing his allies in the later years of World War II, the United States and the United Kingdom. It w ...

Communist Party Of Spain Politicians
Communism (from Latin la, communis, lit=common, universal, label=none) is a far-left sociopolitical, philosophical, and economic ideology and current within the socialist movement whose goal is the establishment of a communist society, a socioeconomic order centered around common ownership of the means of production, distribution, and exchange which allocates products to everyone in the society.: "One widespread distinction was that socialism socialised production only while communism socialised production and consumption." Communist society also involves the absence of private property, social classes, money, and the state. Communists often seek a voluntary state of self-governance, but disagree on the means to this end. This reflects a distinction between a more libertarian approach of communization, revolutionary spontaneity, and workers' self-management, and a more vanguardist or communist party-driven approach through the development of a constitutional s ...
