Summary: The study examines the crises in the Communist Movement in the 1950s and 1960s as a powerful stimulator of its disintegrative processes. In contrast to the prevailing research trends, here the focus is placed on the small crises in the movement, which were caused by the great upheavals in the Socialist Camp, affecting not only it, but also communist parties around the world. The argument is that examining the problems of the entire Communist Movement will provide an opportunity for a more precise view of the unfavorable tendencies that led to the decline of Soviet authority.

Keywords: Communist Movement, Communist crisis, 20th congress of the CPSU, Hungarian revolution, Sino-Soviet conflict, Prague spring
