 Stalin and the Comintern
Members of the Russian delegation to the ECCI elected by the Fifth Comintern Congress in 1924: Zinoviev (also Comintern's president), Bukharin, Stalin, Kamenev, Rykov; candidates: Sokolnikov, Trotsky, Lozovsky, Piatnitsky.
His active involvement began at the Fifth Comintern Congress in 1924, when he was elected to the Executive Committee and its Presidium.
Just to highlight Stalin's initial difficulties in the Comintern (Lenin had withdrawn from active political life from December 1922), let us consider the composition of the Russian delegation to the Executive Committee, elected at the Fifth Congress in 1924.

 1928 and 1930 Comintern Resolutions
Conspicuously absent from the 1928 Comintern resolution -- although it was strongly implied in several instances -- was the categorical assertion that the Negro inhabitants of the "Black Belt" constituted a nation.
The Fourth (1922) and Sixth (1928) Comintern Congresses both thoroughly analyzed the state of the various national liberation movements in the colonial and semi-colonial countries.
At the urging of several Black American delegates to the Sixth Congress, who had earlier pointed out that the Party in the United States had less than fifty Negro members while Garvey could claim the allegiance of more than one million supporters, a subcommittee on the Negro Question was established.

 Reports of Arab Delegates to the VIIth congress of the Comintern - part II
The last Comintern Congress was held in 1935 and it was the first one with any major Arab participation.
It is because the leadership of the party fundamentally did not understand the national question of Palestine, the national-liberation and agrarian character of the revolutionary movement.
Standard historians are unaware of any differences of opinion or any debates at all at this very Stalinist Seventh Comintern Congress, and indeed there was much less free discussion in 1935 than there had been in the early Congresses in Lenin's time.

There was no sustained political opposition of any scale and the evanescent individual resistances of Arthur Horner, 1929-1931, and the party leaders Harry Pollitt, J.R. Campbell, and Willie Gallacher in 1939, were swiftly followed by recantation and self criticism.
Despite the party’s protests, the Comintern successfully insisted they publish the offending document, and thwarted an attempt to recall Murphy as
From 1920, the Russian party’s wielding of state power, its prestige as maker of the revolution which eluded other parties, and its relative monopoly of material resources, ensured an undemocratic disequilibrium within the Comintern.

This meant the Comintern was itself a highly unstable political united front from the very start.
The meeting sought to wring concessions from the Bolsheviks about the treatment of social-democrats in Russia, and the Comintern delegation headed by Bukharin was prepared to make concessions and allow observers from the three Internationals to witness the forthcoming trials of social-revolutionaries in Russia and to promise that death sentences would not result.

Around 1925, the Comintern entrusted Münzenberg and his propaganda machine with a little-known but large role in giving shape and political function to the Communist Party of the United States as it was to be under Stalin.
The Comintern was in many ways the quintessential Leninist institution, shaped from its inception by the two leading passions of Lenin& political personality: his obsession with secrecy, and his preoccupation with absolute power.
At the 1921 Congress, Zinoviev momentarily maneuvered Münzenberg out of his main party position of the time, running the Young Communist League.

 CHNN, No 13, Autumn 2002: The Comintern and the Colonies The Comintern and the Hidden History of Indian Communism
The silence of the Comintern on the position of the Sixth Congress after the adoption of the Dimitrov thesis led to an absurd situation which implied that the positions of both the Sixth and the Seventh Congress were equally valid and correct.
This confused and contradictory understanding very seriously affected the CPI’s united front strategy, especially its relation with the Congress Socialist Party, since the sectarianism of the Third Period continued to dominate the minds of the party ranks.
The only difference is that while the leaders of the communist parties defend this toeing of the Comintern line and are proud of their loyalty to it, the liberal bourgeois historians ridicule this loyalty.

The previously available Congress Proceedings, which were published in 1920 and 1930, had been heavily censored by the Executive Committee.
This was because the archives of Comintern (which closed down in 1943) were hidden away in the inaccessible repositories of the central archive of the Central Committee of the USSR.
IDC's incorporation of Comintern material from the archives of the former Central Party Archive (now renamed the Russian Centre for the Conservation and Study of Records of Modern History) starts with the publication of shorthand reports on the first Comintern congresses, upon which the political component of the organization was founded.
