Red |country = Belgium }} Communist Party of Belgium ((オランダ語:Kommunistische Partij van België), (フランス語:Parti Communiste de Belgique)) was a political party in Belgium. The youth wing of KPB/PCB was known as the Communist Youth of Belgium. The party published a newspaper known as ''Le Drapeau Rouge'' in French and ''De Roode Vaan'' in Dutch. == History == It was formed at a congress in Anderlecht on September 3-4 1921. KPB/PCB was formed through the unification of two groups, the Communist Party led by War Van Overstraeten and the Belgian Communist Party led by Joseph Jacquemotte, following a split from the Belgian Workers Party. At the time of its foundation, KPB/PCB had around 500 members.〔(1921-1996: PC )〕 KPB/PCB became the Belgian section of the Communist International. The party gained parliamentary presence in 1925, as both Van Overstraeten and Jacquemotte were elected MPs. By 1935 KPB/PCB had 9 deputies in the lower house of parliament and 4 senators. In 1938 it had a membership of about 8,500. During the Second World War, the party had to go underground during German occupation. The party was also closely affiliated with the Partisans Armés, a resistance group during the occupation, however in 1943 much of the party leadership was arrested by German forces. After the end of the war, the party was strengthened and obtained 25% in the parliamentary elections. The party participated in coalition government with the socialists and the liberals during 1946-1947. On August 18, 1950 the party chairman, Julien Lahaut, was assassinated. In the mid 1960s the U.S. State Department estimated the party membership to be approximately 9,890.〔Benjamin, Roger W.; Kautsky, John H.. ''(Communism and Economic Development )'', in The American Political Science Review, Vol. 62, No. 1. (Mar., 1968), pp. 122.〕 KPB/PCB lost its parliamentary presence in 1985.〔(Official results of the 1978 and 1981 parliamentary elections in the Brussels-Hal-Vilvorde arrondissement ); Didier Bajura and Daniel Fedrigo, the two last PCB MP's, during the 1981-1985 legislature, were elected in Wallonia〕 In 1989 KPB/PCB was divided into two separate parties, Kommunistische Partij in Flanders and Parti Communiste in Wallonia. Several foreign communist parties, American, British, German, French and Dutch, had branches in Belgium. 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「Communist Party of Belgium」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
