Eurocommunism

Uncommon card · No. 107721

Eurocommunism was a trend in the 1970s and 1980s within various Western European communist parties, which said that they had developed a theory and practice of social transformation more relevant for Western Europe than Marxism–Leninism. During the Cold War, they sought to reject the influence of the Soviet Union and its Communist Party. The trend was prominent in Italy, Spain, and, to a lesser extent, France. It is commonly considered to have been prompted by the Prague Spring. Although the various parties converged against the Soviet factor, their own doctrines remained as different at the dissolution of the movement as they originally were before 1968.
