A seismic shock convulsed British Communism in the wake of Nikita Khruschev's revelations about Stalin at the 20th Congress of the Russian Party in February 1956: a shock that can be understood only in relation to the history and development of the British party.
1956 was a year of political drama. It saw the Anglo-French seizure of the Suez Canal, Nikita Khruschev's Secret Speech, denouncing Stalin, unrest across Eastern Europe and the Russian invasion of Hungary. This book discusses the convulsions which enveloped the Communist Party of Great Britain in the aftermath of Khruschev's revelations. It reprints the text of The Reasoner for the first time in 60 years. It tells the story of this journal and its editors: John Saville and E.P. Thompson.
