Tsenter Avangard
Tsenter Avangard (Template:Lang-yi, 'Vanguard Centre') or, in Spanish language, Centro Avangard, was a Jewish socialist organization in Argentina (1908–1914).
History
The Tsenter Avangard emerged from a split in the Jewish Social Democratic Labour Organization in Argentina (Avangard), a Bundist group.[1][2] The founders of Tsenter Avangard were known as the iskrovzes faction, a name inspired by the Russian publication Iskra.[1][2] They were Russian speakers and had an assimilationist approach in contrast to the Yiddishkayt line of the Bundists.[1][2][3] In March 1908, the iskrovzes founded the 'Russian Circle'.[4] The Russian Circle was admitted as a language propaganda unit in the Socialist Party under the name Centro Avangard.[4][5] During the split in Avangard, the two factions fought over control of the library of the organization.[1]
Key figures of Tsenter Avangard were A. Bondarev and Y. Sheyner.[1] Tsenter Avangard published Di shtime fun Avangard (Template:Lang-yi, 'Voice of the Vanguard') as its organ 1908–1910.[1][3][5]
Tsenter Avangard was rendered largely defunct under the state of siege of the 1910 Argentina Centennial.[2]
In 1914 the Socialist Party closed down the Tsenter Avangard and its other language centres.[4][6] The iskrovzes tendency continued to operate however, publishing the periodical Golos Avangard.[4]
