 | | COMINTERN [Comintern] [acronym for Communist International], name given to the Third International, founded at Moscow in 1919. |
 | | The Comintern gained strength during the 1920s, but its efforts to foment revolution, notably in Germany, were unsuccessful. |
 | | In 1935, the Comintern abandoned the membership policies established under the "Twenty-one Conditions" and began to form coalitions, or popular fronts, with bourgeois parties. |
