At The HagueCongress of 1872, Marx prevailed, and Bakunin was expelled from the International.
In the wake of the Marxist-anarchist split, however, the decision was made to remove the general council to the U.S., where it maintained a shadow existence until it was formally dissolved in 1876.
The founding congress elected as president Grigory Zinovyev, one of Lenin's lieutenants, and appointed an executive committee to ensure continuity between congresses.
The congress first adopted the manifesto and by-laws of the association which a committee had been ordered to prepare, and then discussed a certain number of social and political questions which were made the order of the day.
Each year the congress or general assembly of the delegates of the association was to elect the members of the council and determine where the council should sit.
On the eve of the congress at the Hague, Aug. 4, 1872, at the congress at Rimini, the Italian federation formally broke with the general council.
