This article examines the campaigns to suppress dissent and create conformity within international communism, focusing on the Spanish Communist party in the period before the Great Terror in the Soviet Union. This was not a simple process of ‘Stalinization’ forced upon the Spanish party by the Communist International (Comintern) in Moscow but required the active participation of party members in order to create a culture of compliance. A range of competing considerations, local imperatives and personal agendas conditioned this involvement, which took forms that served particular purposes within the party and which were often at odds with the wishes of the Comintern
