 | | FIDE has been criticised by the Association of Chess Professionals (ACP) as well as individual players. | | | FIDE stepped up to organise a tournament to find a replacement, and the Soviet Union, aware that this was a process it had to be involved with, joined. | | | From that initial 1948 tournament (won by Mikhail Botvinnik) to 1993, FIDE was the only body organising world chess championships. |
