Communist Labor Party

The Communist Labor Party is a political party within the United Republics. It was founded by the centre-right wing of the now defunct Worker's Communist Party of America in 1955 due to unassailable disagreements over foreign policy regarding the post-war Alliance of Free States, as well as over how a communist party should be organized (the left-wing would go on to found the Liberation Communist Party that same year).

The CLP considers itself to be the ideological continuation of the original Worker's Party. This is reflected within their chosen symbol: A crossed hammer, sickle and torch that mirrors that of the WCPA's original emblem. As with their precursor, the party officially adheres to the ideology of Marxism-DeLeonism. Where they differ from their forbear is the use of 'Organic Centralism' (first theorized by Italian communist Amadeo Bordiga) in order to organize the day-to-day political affairs. This is in contrast to Liberation, which operates under principals of Councilism and Localism. The CLP are advocates of central planning and centralized government, and in foreign affairs support a combination of muscular diplomacy and pragmatism. Socially, they take a position of neutrality on social affairs.
