description This paper explores the first years of the Paraguayan Communist Party, based on its insertion as a national section of the Communist International and its relations with this world organization through its regional body: the South American Secretariat. On the first hand, this work takes into account, the conflicts that took place between the Paraguayan national section and the Komintern in a context of imminence of the Chaco War (1932-1935). These disagreements were both related to the possibilities of the Paraguayan section to apply the anti-war tactics promoted by the Communist International and to the internal crisis of the Communist Party of Argentina (1927-1928) that resulted in the split of the group led by Penelón. On the second hand, this paper studies some aspects of the activity of the anti-war committees in Paraguay, a political expression of anti-war movements promoted by the Comintern which sought to transform war into social revolution. Finally, this work analyses the period after the end of the war conflict in which the “revolución Febrerista” (1936) rose up, as a movement that unified different sectors under nationalism and anti-liberalism. By then, the strategy of the Komintern, since its VII Congress in 1935, had undergone a turn by prioritizing the formation of popular fronts, which led Paraguayan communism to join the coalition that supported the government of Rafael Franco (1936-1937). The new strategy allowed the PCP to emerge from political isolation and grow into the insertion in the Paraguayan working world.

Este trabajo indaga los primeros años del Partido Comunista del Paraguay tomando como ejes su inserción como sección nacional de la Internacional Comunista y sus relaciones con esa organización mundial fundada a través de su órgano regional: el Secretariado Sudamericano. En primer lugar, se ocupa de los conflictos que tuvieron lugar entre la sección nacional paraguaya y la Komintern en un contexto de inminencia de la Guerra del Chaco (1932-1935). Estos desacuerdos estuvieron relacionados con las posibilidades de la sección paraguaya de aplicar las tácticas contra la guerra impulsadas por la Internacional Comunista y con la crisis interna del Partido Comunista de Argentina (1927-1928) que tuvo como consecuencia la escisión del grupo liderado por Penelón. Posteriormente, estudia algunos aspectos de la actividad de los comités antiguerreros en Paraguay, expresión de los movimientos antibélicos impulsados por el Komintern que buscaban transformar la guerra en revolución social. Por último, se analiza el período posterior al final del conflicto bélico que dio lugar a la “revolución Febrerista” (1936), movimiento que aglutinó a diferentes sectores unificados por el nacionalismo y el antiliberalismo. Para entonces, la estrategia de la Komintern, a partir de su VII Congreso en 1935, había experimentado un viraje priorizando la formación de frentes populares, lo que llevó al comunismo paraguayo a integrar la coalición que dio sustento al gobierno de Rafael Franco (1936-1937). La nueva estrategia permitió al PCP, salir del aislamiento político y crecer en la inserción en el mundo obrero paraguayo.
