Der royter shtern ('Red Star') was a Yiddish-language communist newspaper published in Argentina. The first issue of Der royte shtern was published at the time of the sixth anniversary of the October Revolution.[1][2] The newspaper was the weekly organ of the Jewish Section (Idsektie) of the Communist Party of Argentina.[2][3] Der royte shtern played an important role in the Yiddish communist press in the country, and around it various cultural and thematic publications were issued.[3] As of 1925, Der royter shtern had 2,000 subscribers.[2] As of 1927, the weekly edition stood at 3,500 copies (which can be compared with the figure for the Spanish-language organ of the party, La Internacional, at 6,000 and more than the Italian-language organ Ordine Nuovo).[3]
The newspaper continued to be published until 1934.[2] Der royter shern was replaced by Soviet, but only one issue of the new publication was published.[3]
