Communist Party (Sweden) - Youth Organisations

Youth Organisations

In the early days of the party, the pro-KFML(r) fractions of the United FNL Groups (DFFG) and of the Swedish Clarté League broke away and set up the Solidarity Front for the People of Indochina and Clarté (m-l) respectively. In 1972 these two structures were dissolved and merged into the Young Communist League of Sweden (marxist-leninists) (Sveriges Kommunistiska Ungdomsförbund (marxist-leninisterna), SKU(ml)), the new KFML(r) youth wing. Later a new students organisation, SKS(ml), was formed. Both SKU(ml) and SKS(ml) were disbanded towards the end of the 1970s, as the party itself consisted mainly of young people.

In 1994 the party again launched a youth organization, Revolutionary Communist Youth (RKU).

Famous quotes containing the word youth:

    The great difficulty is first to win a reputation; the next to keep it while you live; and the next to preserve it after you die, when affection and interest are over, and nothing but sterling excellence can preserve your name. Never suffer youth to be an excuse for inadequacy, nor age and fame to be an excuse for indolence.
    Benjamin Haydon (1786–1846)
