World Revolution, 1917–1936: The Rise and Fall of the Communist International was written by Trinidadian Marxist C. L. R. James and published in 1937 by Secker and Warburg. It was a pioneering Marxist analysis from a Trotskyist perspective of the history of revolutions during the interwar period and of the fundamental conflict between Trotsky and Stalin after the Russian Revolution. James, who was a leading Trotskyist activist in Britain during the 1930s, outlined Russia's transition from communist revolution to a Stalinist totalitarian state bureaucracy building on works such as Trotsky's The Revolution Betrayed. He also provides an account of the ideological contestations within the Communist International while examining its influence on the development of the Soviet Union and its changing role in struggles such as the German Revolution of 1918–23, the Chinese Revolution of 1925–27 and the Spanish Civil War. He was helped when writing it by Harry Wicks and other Trotskyists, while Dorothy Pizer typed up the manuscript. The work was dedicated to the Marxist Group, of which James was then a leading member.
