Abstract

Leo Weiczen followed a complex political itinerary, from his early years as an orthodox Communist, to his phase as a “Democratic Communist” (linked to the Que faire? secret faction in the French Communist Party in the mid-1930s), and finally to his shift to a position of Revolutionary Democrat, which gradually emerged during the Second World War. This outline is based on currently available research (together with some neglected material). The aim is to contextualize Valiani’s choices in the history of interwar Communist, Socialist and Revolutionary Democratic movements.
