International audience; La nature des liens entre le sommet des organisations et la masse de leurs adhérents est une donnée essentielle pour saisir l’histoire du fait communiste. Elle régule le fonctionnement des structures et détermine largement leurs succès et leurs fragilités. La Fédération sportive et gymnique du travail (FSGT) est fondée en 1934 et incarne à partir de 1950 le versant communiste du mouvement sportif ouvrier français. Organisation de masse du Parti communiste français, censée rapprocher du Parti les jeunes travailleurs et leurs familles, elle n’échappe pas elle-même aux distances qu’elle a pour vocation de réduire entre les dirigeants nationaux et les membres ordinaires.…
