Voltaic Revolutionary Communist Party

Voltaic Revolutionary Communist Party (Parti communiste révolutionnaire voltaïque, PCRV) is a communist party in Burkina Faso. It was founded on 1 October 1978, following a split in the Voltaic Communist Organization (OCV). PCRV followed the political line of the Albanian Party of Labour, anti-revisionist Marxism-Leninism. It promoted 'National Democratic and Popular Revolution' (RNDP).

PCRV did not support the revolutionary government of Thomas Sankara. This led to a split and the formation of the Burkinabè Communist Group.

PCRV publishes Bug-Parga.

PCRV is an active participant in the International Conference of Marxist-Leninist Parties and Organizations (Unity & Struggle).

Famous quotes containing the words communist and/or party:

    In a higher phase of communist society ... only then can the narrow horizon of bourgeois right be fully left behind and society inscribe on its banners: from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.
    Karl Marx (1818–1883)

    He said, truly, that the reason why such greatly superior numbers quailed before him was, as one of his prisoners confessed, because they lacked a cause,—a kind of armor which he and his party never lacked. When the time came, few men were found willing to lay down their lives in defense of what they knew to be wrong; they did not like that this should be their last act in this world.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
