History and profile
Jugend-Internationale was launched in Zürich by the International League of Socialist Youth Organisations in 1915.[1] Willi Münzenberg was named as its first editor.[1] Its publisher was the secretariat of the organization.[1] The magazine came out monthly,[2][3] and its first eleven issues were published in Zürich until 1918.[1] It supported the left-wing faction in the Swiss Social Democratic Party.[3] Major contributors included many leading communists, including Vladimir Lenin, Leon Trotsky, Grigory Zinoviev, Karl Radek, Alexandra Kollontai, Karl Liebknecht, Otto Rühle, Eduard Bernstein, Friedrich Adler, and Robert Danneberg.[1] György Lukács, a member of the Hungarian Communist Party, also published articles in Jugend-Internationale in 1921.[4]
