The Workers' Communist Party ((ノルウェー語:Arbeidernes Kommunistparti), AKP) was a Norwegian communist party (1973–2007). AKP was a maoist party and one of two communist parties in Norway; the other was the older Communist Party of Norway which has remained pro-Soviet. The relationship between the two parties was characterized by strong hostility. AKP was founded in 1973, as ''Arbeidernes Kommunistparti (marxist-leninistene)''. It did not participate directly in elections, but members had "activity duty", meaning that they were to work for the party's goals - passive members were not accepted. The precise number of its members is unknown. On 22 February 2006 the party opened some of its archives to the public, in a move the party argued was to hit out at all the rumours surrounding the party. It was a predecessor of the current party Red founded on 10 March 2007. == History == Two trends led to the formation of AKP(m-l): *The radical movements of Western academic environments in the late 1960s and early 1970s, particularly within the context of the Vietnam war *The Sino-Soviet split between the Soviet Union and China, which caused an ideological crisis among an older generation of communists The founders of AKP(m-l) came from what was then known as SUF, or Sosialistisk Ungdomsforbund (Socialist Youth League). SUF had been started as the youth wing of the Sosialistisk Folkeparti, but broke away in 1969 as it developed into a marxist-leninist direction. Following the split SUF was renamed SUF(m-l). As a result of the activity duty, many party members practiced "self-proletarisation" on the party's orders, working as manual labourers, especially in the period from 1974 to 1976. Later, the party encouraged its well-educated members to take work as teachers, particularly in higher education. As a part of their policy, AKP members have joined and tried to influence several voluntary organisations in socialist direction, particularly those related to "feminism", labor unions and anti-racism. AKP did not put its name on election ballots, choosing instead to work through Red Electoral Alliance (RV), originally AKPs electoral face, but from 1990 a party of its own without any formal link to AKP, though most of AKPs members were also members of RV In March 2007 AKP and Red Electoral Alliance (RV) merged, and formed the party Red, a revolutionary party with a programme supporting communism. Some former members of AKP have argued that since the party Red does not have activity duty or democratic centralism, it is not a communist party, while others have argued that a communist program and the fact that like traditional communist parties, Red is organized in cells, it is a communist party. Some former members of AKP, especially members of AKP's student organization, NKS, formed a marxist-leninist front, KP(m-l) together with the Marxist-Leninist Group Revolusjon. This front was meant to be an organisation with the purpose of building a traditional marxist-leninist party. ''Klassekampen'' (Class Struggle) used to be the party's daily newspaper in the 1970s, but is from the 1990s associated to a slightly wider political spectrum. Red now owns 20% of the stocks in ''Klassekampen'', the amount AKP owned before the merge with RV. AKP was also associated to Oktober Forlag, a publisher. From early 2000s the party published the monthly newspaper ''akp.no'', named after the party's website, and throughout its existence it published a quarterly magazine for Marxist debate, first named ''Røde Fane'' (Red Standard), then from 2004 ''Rødt!'' (Red! - this name might have inspired the name of the new party). The newspaper ''akp.no'' continues as Red's party newspaper, under the name ''Rødt Nytt'' (Red News). The magazine ''Rødt!'' is continued under the ownership of the party Red. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Workers' Communist Party (Norway)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
