《青年团的任务》是1920年10月列宁在俄国共产主义青年团第三次全国代表大会上发表的著名演说。俄国共产主义青年团成立于十月革命胜利后的1918年,当时正是年轻的苏维埃政权极端困难的时期,帝国主义的武装干涉和国内叛乱,严重威胁着苏维埃政权的生存,在保卫苏维埃政权的斗争中,广大团员,青年做了大量出色的工作。俄国青年团第三次代表大会召开时,反对外国武装干涉及国内战争已基本结束。接下来列宁领导的俄国面临的将是和平条件下的社会主义全面建设。那么,在新的历史条件下,如何克服连年战争带来的巨大困难进行社会主义建设,青年一代如何才能成长为真正的共产主义者,担负起社会主义建设的伟大任务,列宁在《青年团的任务》的演说中,对这一系列重要问题进行了深刻的阐述。列宁在演讲中指出:“一般青年的任务,尤其是共产主义青年团及其他一切组织的任务,可以用一句话来表示:就是学习。”（《列于选集》第4卷第344页）为什 The mission of the Youth League was a famous speech made by Lenin at the Third National Congress of the Russian Communist Youth League in October 1920.
