  The French Communist Party within the Left and alternative movements
 
 
Title: The French Communist Party within the Left and alternative movements
Author: Bell, David S.
Appeared in: Modern & contemporary France
Paging: Volume 12 (2004) nr. 1 pages 23-34
Year: 2004-02
Contents: French Communism once dominated the Left of the Left and assimilated within itself most of the 'alternative' political movements. However, the decline of Communism has created a space on the extreme Left that has been exploited by a myriad of small movements. These have occupied a political territory that the Communists would like to claim for their own, but they are unable to reclaim their once hegemonic position and find themselves a junior partner in many of the transactions on the extreme Left. Communist decline and their inability to find a way out of their impasse are connected with the same thing-their rigidity. However, if Communism changes it will cease to be Communist and the indications are, given Communist history and politics, that it is not capable of making the changes.
