Encyclopedia > New Union Party

The New Union Party (NUP), was originally formed in 1974 as the New Unionists, several of whom had been members of Section Minneapolis of Socialist Labor Party of America (SLP). As with many such departures since the 1920s, they claimed SLP had become bureaucratic and authoritarian in its internal party structure. In August 1980, New Unionists fused with the League for Socialist Reconstruction (LSR) and two smaller groups and proclaimed the "New Union Party." In that year, New Unionist editor Jeff Miller ran for US Congress un Minnesota's Fifth District, polling 1.4% of the total vote. 1974 is a common year starting on Tuesday (click on link for calendar). ...

The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR or Soviet Union; Soyuz Sovetskikh Sotsialisticheskikh Respublik, SSSR written in the Cyrillic alphabet as СССР) was a communist-ruled union with a single-party system that existed from 1922 until 1991.
The Soviet Union was the successor state of the Russian Empire but was smaller as a result of the independence of Poland, Finland and the Baltic States.
In retrospect the Soviet Union's greatest achievement was the destruction of the Nazi war machine - broken in the epic battles for Moscow, Leningrad, Stalingrad, Kursk and beyond.
