Structural and organizational similarities in the institutional troika: The communist party of Romania, the comintern and the communist party (Bolshevik) (2017)

In this article we analysed both the similarities and the differences between the structures and departments of three political organizations that were at the heart of the communist movement in Romania. The well-known affiliation through control and subordination of the Communist Party of Romania towards the Comintern and implicitly to the Communist (Bolshevik) Party in Moscow was considered dangerous by the Romanian authorities at that time. The mirror image of the three political entities requires a careful investigation of the relations of control and domination which have arisen between them. Whoever leads, who is the master and who are the performers – these are some questions which could shed more light on the emergence of this phenomenon coming from outside the Romanian space. The Organizational Chart, analysis of the structures and departments of the three organizations are relevant to a radiography of a troubled period during which the most controversial “party” of our national history was born. The edification of these aspects helps us understand and clarify the role and legal status of C.P.o.R. in the equation of the interwar political system.
