Abstract

The article talks about communist nostalgia in the identity of the left political party of France, the Parti Communiste Français (PCF). Topics discussed include the collapse of the Vichy government in 1944, PCF's passivity on the issue of the signing of the German-Soviet Pact, and the French resistance movement of 1941 after the Nazi invasion of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR).
