Abstract

ABSTRACTOne of the ways in which the Bolshevik paradigm influenced socialist politics in Greece was through the dissemination of anti-nationalist and anti-war theses. An important part of the struggle within the Socialist Workers’ Party (SEKE) concerning its ‘bolshevization’ revolved around the various dimensions of the national question. This article gives an account of the development of internationalism in Greece during the ‘war decade’, and illustrates the extent to which this development constituted a significant break with the past of Greek radicalism. The factors that created a favourable environment for the influence of the anti-nationalist politics of the Russian revolution included the renegotiation of national bonds after the Balkan Wars, the hardships of a prolonged war and the political repertoire available for the articulation of popular discontents.
