1931: Lenin Institute in Moscow

The Institute for Marxism-Leninism at the Central Committee of the CPSU ( Russian Институ́т маркси́зма-ленини́зма  - Institut Marksisma-Leninisma , ИМЛ for short ) was a central party institution of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and existed from 1921 to 1991.

The tasks of the institute included the collection, storage and publication of documents and works by and about Karl Marx , Friedrich Engels and Vladimir Ilyich Lenin , the creation and publication of publications on the work of Marx, Engels and Lenin, and the publication of publications on other personalities of communism and the publication of publications on the further development of the worldview of Marx, Engels and Lenin.

In 1921, the institution was founded under the name of the Marx-Engels Institute (MEI, Russian Институт К. Маркса и Ф. Энгельса ). In 1923 the Lenin Institute ( Russian Институт Ленина ) was founded. On March 13, 1931, the GPU occupied the MEI, the director Dawid Rjasanow and 127 employees were dismissed, including almost all editors of the Marx-Engels Complete Edition (MEGA) such as Anne Bernfeld-Schmückle , Karl Schmückle , Walter Haenisch and Kurt Nixdorf . Under new management it was decided to unite the MEI with the Lenin Institute to form the Marx-Engels-Lenin Institute . From 1954 to 1956, the institute was called the Marx-Engels-Lenin-Stalin Institute ( Russian Институт Маркса - Энгельса - Ленина - Сталина , "ИМЭЛС" for short ). From 1956 to 1991 it was called the Institute for Marxism-Leninism at the Central Committee of the CPSU , and in 1991 it was renamed the Institute for Theory and History of Socialism ( Russian Институт теории и истории социализма , short “ИТИС” ). In the same year the institute ceased its activities. There is a successor institution under the name Institute for Complex Social Research ( Russian Институт комплексных социальных исследований ) that the Department of Sociology ( Russian Институт социологии РАН ) of the Russian Academy of Sciences is connected.

The institute's central party archive is maintained by the Russian State Archives for Socio-Political History ( Russian: Российский государственный архив социально-политической истории , or “РГАbetСПИ” for short ).

The institute was located in Moscow .
