Lensch-Cunow-Haenisch group

The Lensch-Cunow-Haenisch group was a political faction within the Social Democratic Party of Germany founded in 1915 by anti-revisionist Marxists who despite previously opposing participation in the First World War now supported it.Its name comes from the three principal protagonists: Paul Lensch, Heinrich Cunow and Konrad Haenisch.They followed the initiative of Parvus in advocating a German victory as a positive step for international social democracy.[1] In 1907 Parvus had been a critic of German imperialism, publishing Colonial Policy and the Breakdown during the 1907 German federal election, often referred to as the Hottentot Election.This article about a political party in Germany is a stub.
