Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maurice Thorez (1900-1964) was a major figure in the history of twentieth-century France and European Communism for over three decades. Under his leadership, the French Communist Party (PCF) became France's largest political party and one of the most important communist parties in the West. Born in a mining village, Thorez left school at the age of 12 and would go on to helm the PCF in a rapid rise that paralleled Stalin's consolidation of power in the Soviet Union. After World War II, he became a minister, and briefly deputy prime minister, before the Cold War excluded communists from political power. The PCF became known as 'the party of Maurice Thorez', as a leader cult around Thorez was created that mirrored the cult of personality' around Stalin. This book is based on a wealth of original source material, including Thorez's diaries and notebooks. John Bulaitis outlines how Thorez's political life intersected with and was shaped by key historical events. At its heart, the book explores the paradox of the mass communist movement in France: its ability to fuse attachment to the French nation with fervent loyalty to the Soviet Union and Stalinist practices.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enfant des corons, secrétaire général du PCF pendant près de trente-cinq ans, figure de proue du Front populaire, vice-président du Conseil de l'après-guerre, Maurice Thorez est une personnalité majeure de la vie politique française du début des années trente au milieu des années soixante. Son itinéraire, qui traverse le stalinisme, fait de lui un enjeu tant parmi ses contemporains que chez les historiens. Il incarne une organisation, le " parti de Maurice Thorez ", qui bâtit autour de lui l'icône à partir de laquelle s'organisent en positif ou en négatif les représentations du " fils du peuple ". Thorez est un personnage à l'identité constamment exploitée à des fins politiques, c'est pourquoi l'analyse de la construction de l'image thorézienne s'avère indispensable à la compréhension du communisme français. L'évocation de ses itinéraires dépasse sans cesse la simple reconstitution d'une existence dont les actes s'inscrivent pour partie dans un idéal mythique autour duquel se mettent en mouvement un homme et une organisation partisane.
