Lenin League

The Lenin League or Leninbund was a German revolutionary socialist organisation.

It was formed in the late 1920s by expelled members of the German Communist Party such as Hugo Urbahns.[1]

For a time it had some links with Leon Trotsky's Left Opposition, but they went different ways. [2]

It later became involved with the International Revolutionary Marxist Centre.
