Popular Liberation Front

The Libertarian Socialist Party commonly abbreviated to PLP IS a political party in the Valruzian Federation. It was founded in 2503 by trade union leader Vladimir Kalevsky. The party has particularly strong ties to the labour unions and produces a monthly magazine entitled The Truth. == History == The party was founded on March 05, 2503 Vladimir Kalevsky and most of it's first members were made up of those from the National Confederation of Labour who believed that political rather than revolutionary means were the best way to bring about worker empowerment. Kalevsky admitted openly that this deparure from orthodox anarchist doctrine was an attempt at "bringing the state down from within". Initially there was division within the party as a small minority of members were keen to establish a state socialist system in Valruzian. However the majority of the party wanted Workers self-management and a truly anarchist system entailing the absence of a state/government. The dissenters were quickly won over by the mainstream of the party.

Ideology
The party aims to abolish private property and illegitimate authoritarian institutions, so that all of society will control the means of production and resources shall be shared by society as a whole and not just an elite few. The party intends for the promotion of liberty and social justice to be carried out by trade unions, workers' councils, municipalities, citizens' assemblies and other non-bureaucratic, decentralized means of action. So ironically the party will have been sucessful once there is no longer a role for it in society. Overall the party aims to create a society lacking in social, economic or political hierarchies in which all violent institutions would be removed and replaced with a situation in which every person would have free, equal access to the tools of information and prodution.
