Summary/Abstract: This paper aims to reconstruct and discuss the critique of the Comintern’s policy by the International Council Correspondence (ICC). The latter was a small, Chicago-based circular of the council communist movement, which was an anti-Bolshevik, but Marxist, left-wing movement. The council communists rejected the Bolshevik concept of the party as well as their fixation on the state.
