Dr. Valère Somé is a politician and scholar from Burkina Faso. Somé was the leader of the Union of Communist Struggles - Reconstructed (ULC-R) during the 1980s.〔Hughes, Arnold. ''(Marxism's Retreat from Africa )''. London: F. Cass, 1992. p. 100〕 He is an Anthropo-Economist, and heads research at the INSS-CNRST.〔''(Tic & développement: Dr. Valère Somé )''〕 Entering the revolutionary process of 1983 with the support from the student movement, Somé came to play an important role in the political life of the country during the rule of the Revolutionary National Council led by Thomas Sankara. Somé and another ULC-R leader, Basile Guissou, largely functioned as the 'ideologues' of the revolutionary government.〔Bianchini, Pascal. ''(Ecole et politique en Afrique noire: sociologie des crises et des réformes du système d'enseignement au Sénégal et au Burkina Faso (1960–2000) )''. Paris: Karthala, 2004. pp. 106, 145〕 In January 1985 ULC-R won the elections in the University of Ouagadougou Committee for the Defense of the Revolution. But another faction, the Union of Burkinabè Communists (UCB), controlled the university administration through the principal Clément Oumarou Ouedraogo. On 29 August 1986 Somé was named Minister of Higher Education and Research. As a result from the ULC-R/UCB rivalry at the university, the university CDR committee was disbanded on 1 September 1986. Somé faced criticism from within his own organization after taking charge as Minister.〔〔''(Quelques évènements de l’An 4 de la RDP )''〕〔http://faolex.fao.org/docs/texts/bkf7125.doc〕 On 9 September 1987 a new government was formed, without Somé. Later the same month, Sankara gave Somé the task of drafting a programme for the unification of the different revolutionary organizations.〔 After the overthrow and assassination of Sankara in 1987, Somé went into exile in Congo-Brazzaville for a period.〔''(REFUGIES POLITIQUES BURKINABE )''〕 In 1989 Somé formed the Party for Social Democracy (PDS) along with other former ULC-R members who had refused to merge with the Organization for Popular Democracy - Labour Movement. In January 1995 PDS and other parties merged into the Party for Unified Social Democracy (PDSU), with Somé as its leader.〔''(L'Afrique politique: Femmes d'Afrique )''. p. 173〕 Somé completed his doctoral thesis in 1996.〔Rey, Pierre-Philippe. ''(QU’EST-CE QU’UNE ANTHROPOLOGIE DE LA LIBERATION ? )''〕 On 21 May 2000, Somé's party merged into the Sankarist Pan-African Convention (CPS). Somé became general secretary of the CPS.〔''(Guerre des chefs ou chefs de guerre ? )''〕 He later founded a new party, the Convergence for Social Democracy (CDS).〔''(La gueguerre des Sankaristes )''〕 In October 2004 he was replaced by Djéjouma Sanon as the leader of CDS.〔''(Le sankarisme selon la CDS )''〕 ==Bibliography== *Somé, Valère D.
