The Bloc of Oppositions, also known as Trotsky's bloc and called by the Soviet press the Bloc of Rights and Trotskyites, was a political alliance created by oppositionists in the USSR and Leon Trotsky by the end of 1932.[1][2] Trotsky defined it as a conspiratorial bloc in order to fight Stalinist repression in the Soviet Union.
