The Corrective Revolution or Corrective Step was the Abdel Fattah Ismail Marxist faction of the South Yemeni National Liberation Front (NLF)'s successful internal coup in 1969. The leftist takeover later led to the creation of the Yemeni Socialist Party (YSP), and South Yemen's transformation into the only Arab state to embrace doctrinaire Marxism.
