The Communist Party of Argentina (CPA) was strongly constituted among its Southamerican counterparts and within the Argentine political frame in the period between wars mainly because of its early link to the Russian Revolution and to the intense activity it developed within the labourers' movement. The objective of this work is to stress the critical importance that the analysis of the relations between the CPA’s management and the Soviet Union Communist Party’s management through the Third International represents for the study of the Argentine communism. To this aim, I present some queries related to the autonomy from the Soviet Union which I consider of key importance to fully understand the development of the CPA in the period between 1919 and 1943. Also, I discuss the need to incorporate the international dimension to the analysis of the practical policies carried out by the CPA in the current state of the issue.
