". . . but later turned away [from the French Communist Party] after the party's Stalinist drift."
By 1937 (when he joined it) the PCF already had a "Stalinist" reputation. In fact, the PCF was often depicted by Western authors as the quintessential Stalinist party in Western Europe. So it doesn't make much sense to write that he broke with it because of its "Stalinist drift." From what little I've read, Rodinson was expelled from the party in 1958 because he had begun to criticize it, arguing it was imposing dogmatic thinking on its members. This wasn't due to any "Stalinist drift" by the party, it was simply due to the upheaval in the international communist movement after Khrushchev's "Secret Speech." --Ismail (talk) 14:04, 11 July 2020 (UTC)
