The All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks) was a Marxist–Leninist communist party which represented the vanguard of the peoples of the Soviet Union. It was founded in 1917 as the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party (Bolsheviks) during the time of the Great October Socialist Revolution and was led by Vladimir Lenin and later Joseph Stalin.
The party was reorganized into the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in 1952, and would soon be put under revisionist control after Stalin's murder in 1953 and abandon Marxism–Leninism.
