History
The Communist Review was first published on 13 March 1934, as the official organ of the Communist Party of Australia. The magazine was published continuously through to 1966. However, the paper was published in a variety of different sizes and formats, and several editions during 1941 were issued as typescript duplicates. When the Communist Party of Australia was made illegal by the government of Robert Menzies during 1951, the publication of the magazine continued unabated. Publication of the magazine was eventually ceased after it was replaced by the Australian Left Review, which at the time was considered to have a more accessible political agenda.
Digitisation
The various editions of the paper have been digitised as part of the Australian Newspapers Digitisation Program, a project hosted by the National Library of Australia.
