List of communists
From Free net encyclopedia
Template:Communism This is a list of the major figures in history who identified themselves as communists. It does not include adherents of the various other forms of socialism (such as evolutionary socialism or libertarian socialism) who agree with only some of the ideas attributed to communism and do not call themselves communists. However, the list does include all self-described communists, making no judgement as to whether their views actually do fit within the realm of communism.
For a more comprehensive list of Communists from the Soviet Union see category:Soviet politicians.
For a broader list of all socialists, see List of socialists.
