THE ABANDONED REVOLUTION: THE COMMUNISTS, THE III INTERNATIONAL, THE CRISIS OF THE TWENTIES AND THE MOVEMENT OF OCTOBER 1930
PCB – Revolution of 1930 – Communism – lieutenant movement – First Republic
This thesis analyzes the performance of the Brazilian Communist Party, the PCB, during the 1930 revolution. We first analyze the founding process of the party and its relationship with the III International. Next, we examine the influence of the tenentist uprisings for the construction of the PCB thesis on the Brazilian revolution, the petty bourgeois democratic revolution, as well as the consequences of their application in the national reality. Finally, we examine how the party and its members behaved in the face of the disintegration process of oligarchic power, which ended with the Liberal Alliance's takeover, and the consequences of the revolution to the PCB.
