Leon Trotsky: For Communist Unity

January 31, 1931

[The Spanish Revolution (1931-39). New York 1973, p. 89]

The Spanish communists must reconstruct their unity. This slogan will undoubtedly be tremendously attractive in the next period, and will increase in popularity along with the growth of communist influence. This is why it seems to me that the slogan of the united front in relation to the syndicalist and the Socialist workers should be supplemented by the slogan for unification of the communists (on a definite program).
