20th Century History/KPD in Germany

Expert: Michel Cahier - 11/2/2009


Question
I was wondering, in which conditions (if there was any) does the Bolshevik Party had any type of power over the communist party of Germany? Was there any sort of control from Russia over the KPD? And if there was, in which ways was it applied? Any help will be a good one... thank you.

Answer
hello
this question is  not exactly in my expertise
and it would require a very  long answer
you have some good insight in this issue
in wikipedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communist_Party_of_Germany
best regards
michel


hello
why did  you give me a 3 mark on knowledgeability? I told
you your question not in my expertise. You should  have
abstain yourself to rate  my answer at all instead of
stabbing me in the back when i take time to answer  your
question, search the  web for a good answer and try  to help
you. The least I can say is that  you are not helping me back.
Please  next  time find another expert on Communism because my
expertise is Nazism and  WW2.
Michel

Expertise

I am a French amateur historian in German history between 1918 and 1945, particularly with regard to the Nazi era, Hitler's character and the occupation of Europe.

Experience

I have worked on the subject of Nazism since college and since I retired I developed a complete site with more than 60 chapters devoted to different aspects of the Nazi era. I have developed too a special interest in Nazi Art and the treatment of art by the Nazis. My site had about 2000 hits per week and is very well considered. I would be glad to help some people who have very precise questions about Hitler and the Nazis. My site can be consulted at http://schikelgruber.net/index.html. Needless to say that I am not a supporter of the Nazis and never in this site do I attempt to justify or excuse their policies.

Organizations
I used to work for the Agence France Presse, La Tribune, TV Channel France 3 and as the Editor of the Agence Economique et Financiere. I was in position in Brussels, London and Paris.

Publications
I published a book about the entrepreneurs and the motives for creating a company in the 80s and a book about the Franco-Swiss jeweller Philippe Charriol in the 90s

Education/Credentials
I graduated in Law and Political Sciences, I have a MBA from the Paris Chamber of commerce and I have a license of massage therapy (RMT) of the State of Texas
