Occitan Struggle (Occitan: ''Lucha Occitana'', LO) was an Occitan political group, created in 1971 from the ''Comitat Occitans d'Estudis e d'Accion''. It was a group mainly of intellectuals, students and agricultural unionists. The group had a revolutionary, autonomist, and Occitan nationalist ideology. LO was headquartered in Toulouse. The group primarily desired the complete decolonization of Occitania. The group wanted to lead the working class block, an action that the group thought would contribute to the destruction of the capitalist French state. In 1972 LO signed the Brest Charter. Lucha Occitana published the newspapers ''Païs Occitan-Lucha Occitana'' in Toulouse and ''Occitània Passat e Present'' in Antibes. LO conducted an analysis of the Occitan situation. They opposed the separatist views of the Occitan Nationalist Party. LO advocated: * The existence of an Occitan identity that was culturally and linguistically different from the French. It was resistant to French cultural hegemony and aculturation. * Capitalist and colonial exploitation was present in Occitania, pursuing the liquidation of the Occitan national minority. * The French state increasingly oppresses the Occitan lower classes. * The class struggle in Occitania, reflects greater aspirations than those of the rest of the French hexagon. LO never had more than 500 militants. The group gained prominence thanks to demonstrations against the expropriations of Larzac. In 1974 Lucha Occitana underwent an internal crisis and fragmented into numerous factions. ==References== 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「Lucha Occitana」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
