15 August 2008: Added to the new Roman Rosdolsky Archive
Rosdolsky was born in 1898 in Lemberg (now L’vov, in Ukraine) which was then part of the Austria-Hungarian monarchy. While still at high school he joined the socialist movement and became a convinced internationalist. During the First World War he and his friends founded an underground organisation – ‘The International Revolutionary Socialist Youth of Galicia’. After the outbreak of the Russian revolution, this organisation provided the leaders of the Communist Party of West Ukraine (which later became a section of the Communist Party of Poland). Almost the entire leadership of this party became a victim of the purges in the early thirties, which began in the CPSU and the Soviet Union. Rosdolsky was not living there and so avoided this fate.
After the First World War, Rosdolsky emigrated, firstly to Prague and later to Vienna. In Vienna he worked for several years for the ‘Marx-Engels Institute’ (Moscow), for which he carried out research into historical sources in the Vienna Archives. At the beginning of the thirties, he joined the Trotskyist movement and till the end of his life he identified with the ideas of Trotsky.
As a member of a nationally oppressed peasant nation, Rosdolsky’s principal interest was in a Marxist analysis of the nationalities problem and the history of the peasantry. His dissertation, which gained him a PhD in political science, bore the title Marx and Engels on the problem of.the nations without a history (in German). After the seizure of power by Austro-Fascism in 1934, he had to leave Vienna and return to his native land, which in the meantime had fallen to Poland. Working at the Institute for Economic History at Lemberg University he then published ‘The village community in East Galicia and its dissolution’. (Lwow 1936, in Polish). The outbreak of the Second World War interrupted the publication of his two volume work on peasant oppression in Galicia. It only appeared in Warsaw in 1962.
At the beginning of the Second World War, Rosdolsky was living in Cracow, where he was imprisoned by the Gestapo in 1942. He spent the following years in the concentration camps of Auschwitz, Ravensbruck and Oranienburg in Germany. At the end of the war he taught for a short while in an Austrian trade union school; in 1947 he left for the USA. There his political past prevented him from gaining an academic post. By accident he discovered in an American library one of ‘only three or four copies of the original [1939-41 – SP] Moscow edition in the West’. He immediately recognised the enormous theoretical significance of this manuscript and spent several years writing a commentary on it. This commentary – The Making of Marx’s Capital, Rosdolsky’s best-known book – was only published after his death.
In the first years of his residence in the United States, Rosdolsky also completed a work he had begun with his dissertation ‘Friedrich Engels and the problem of the nations without a history’. He also dealt with the role of the peasantry in the revolution of 1848 in a book The peasant deputies in the Constituent Austrian Reichstag 1848-9.
Roman Rosdolsky died in Detroit on 20 October 1967.
The initial contributions to the archive are a discussion note: 'The Workers and the Fatherland: A Note on a Passage in the “Communist Manifesto”', a careful analysis of Marx and Engels ideas on the relation of the worker to the nation; and 'Imperialist War and the Question of Peace', a major discussion of the revolutionary Marxist attitude to the question of peace and war, based on the activities and writings of the Bolsheviks during the First World War.

Auschwitz, or the Great Alibi, Amadeo Bordiga, 1960
If all there was to this article was its mechanistic reduction of Marxism, its denial of human agency in the most horrific of acts, its diminution of the person to a mere conduit for class interests, “Auschwitz, or the Great Alibi” would be merely another betrayal of the richness of Marx’s thought. When we add its callous and cold treatment of the Holocaust as a simple “ejection from the productive process” of millions of humans, its foreshadowing of Jean-Marie Le Pen’s dismissal of the event as a “point of detail” of the Second World War, it attains to odium. And finally, when we take into account its posterity, its use as a basis for the small current of the (primarily French) left that indulged in Holocaust denial, its true horror is laid bare.
