Summary/Abstract: The article compares how two interwar anti-communist organisations - the Entente Internationale Anticommuniste (EIA) and the Promethean League - perceived events in the USSR. While the EIA focused mainly on the political system (communism) and the Comintern's activities, the Promethean movement emphasised the USSR's imperial and nationality policy and its internal effects. Thus, in the inter-war period, two approaches to the USSR emerged, which would constitute the main difference between anti-communist organisations in the twentieth century.
