Statutes of the Democratic Labour Party of Lithuania, 1989-2001
No full textThis dataset contains the Democratic Labour Party of Lithuania (LDDP) statutes.
The Democratic Labour Party of Lithuania (LDDP) was a Lithuanian political party that has been active from 1989 to 2001.
The party’s predecessor – the Communist Party of Lithuania (LKP) – was a historic Lithuanian political party that began its activities in the second decade of the 20th century and from the very beginning pursued anti-state activities. In 1940, when Lithuania was occupied by the USSR, the LKP became a constituent part of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (SSKP) – an instrument for administering the occupied territory of Lithuania. In December 19–23, 1989, during its congress, the LKP separated from the SSKP and established an independent LKP. This led to a party split, as some members refused to leave the SSKP and founded the Communist Party of Lithuania (on platform of Communist Party of the Soviet Union) (LKP (SSKP)). In December 8–9, 1990, during its congress, the LKP was renamed the Democratic Labour Party of Lithuania (LDDP). On January 27, 2001, the LDDP merged with the Social Democratic Party of Lithuania (LSDP).</p
