- Abstract
For Marxism, the question of the subject is fundamental. Who should make the revolution and, above all, why, produced an intense literature that was interrupted when certain readings of Vladimir Lenin's work became the official discourse of international communism: the working class, as an objective element in the relations of production, had to lead the revolution towards socialism in alliance with other classes. In the Ecuadorian case, the organization called to defend this thesis was the Communist Party of Ecuador (PCE), framed within the Soviet orbit. However, the study of its propaganda offers us a discursive dispute within the Party itself between the traditional classist vision and a populist one of Latin America. A concept, the people, which widens the margins of orthodoxy, but whose widespread use reveals an ambiguous position on the position of the PCE with respect to the revolutionary subject.
