The Mexican Communist Party ((スペイン語:Partido Comunista Mexicano), PCM) was a communist party in Mexico. It was founded in 1911 as the Socialist Workers' Party (, PSO) by Manabendra Nath Roy, a left-wing Indian Bengali intellectual. The PSO changed its name to the Mexican Communist Party in November 1919 following the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia. It was outlawed in 1925 and remained illegal until 1935, during the presidency of the leftist Lázaro Cárdenas. The PCM later lost its registration in 1946 because it did not meet the new requirements of at least 30,000 registered members in at least 21 of Mexico's 31 states and the Federal District. It is not clear whether the party was unable to recruit enough members or if, fearing repression, it refused to turn membership rolls over to the Secretary of the Interior, then in charge of elections. Over the next 30 years, the party had some minor influence in the Confederation of Mexican Workers (CTM) and among the intelligentsia of Mexico City. In the mid 1960s the U.S. State Department estimated the party membership to be approximately 50,000 (0.28% of the working age population of the country).〔Benjamin, Roger W.; Kautsky, John H.. ''(Communism and Economic Development )'', in The American Political Science Review, Vol. 62, No. 1. (March 1968), p. 122.〕 In 1976 the party nominated Valentín Campa as its presidential candidate, competing (unofficially) against José López Portillo. Following the electoral reform of 1977 that lowered the barrier for parties to get on the ballot, the PCM regained temporary registration for the 1979 mid-term elections. After its poor showing and a two decade-long period of moderation during which it adopted a "Eurocommunist" position, the PCM merged with three other far-left political parties in November 1981 and became the Unified Socialist Party of Mexico (PSUM). Most members of the PSUM then merged with somewhat more moderate left-wing groups to form the Mexican Socialist Party (PMS) in 1987. The PMS never competed in national elections alone, having joined the National Democratic Front (FDN) to support the presidential bid of Cuauhtémoc Cárdenas in 1988. What was the PMS was then absorbed into the newly formed Party of the Democratic Revolution (PRD) in 1989. A Marxist-Leninist split is the Party of Mexican Communists. ==Secretaries General of the Mexican Communist Party== *1959-1963 Collective Secretariat of the Mexican Communist Party *1963-1981 Arnoldo Martínez Verdugo 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「Mexican Communist Party」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
