Background

 

The Russian Social-Democratic Labour Party (RSDLP) was formed at the Congress in Minsk in 1898.

                The Communist Party of the RSFSR within the CPSU was established in June 1990.

                In September 1991 the activities of the CPSU and the CP RSFSR were banned as a result of a counterrevolutionary coup.

                On February 13, 1993 the Second Extraordinary Congress of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation announced the resumption of the party’s activities after a ban that lasted almost a year and a half. The Congress adopted its Policy Statement and the Party Charter. In March of that year the CPRF was officially registered with the Justice Ministry of the Russian Federation.

                The Programme of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation was adopted by the Third CPRF Congress on January 22, 1995.

 

                From the CPRF Charter

 

                The political party “the Communist Party of the Russian Federation” was created on a voluntary basis by the citizens of the Russian Federation who have united on the basis of common interests to implement the goals of its Programme and Charter.

                The Communist Party of the Russian Federation is a successor to the cause of the CPSU and the CP RSFSR, being their ideological heir.

               

               

                The CPRF, based on creative development of Marxism-Leninism, has as its main goal the building of socialism, a society of social justice espousing the principles of collectivism, freedom, and equality, it comes out for genuine rule of the people in the form of the Soviets, for the strengthening of the multinational federated state.

                The CPRF is a party of patriots, internationalists, a party of friendship of the peoples.

                The CPRF, in upholding its ideals, protects the interests of the working class, the peasantry, the intelligentsia and all the working people.

                The CPRF is part of the world communist movement, cooperating and developing ties with foreign communist and workers’ parties, progressive organizations and movements.

                The CPRF pursues its activities in accordance with the goals of its Programme and Charter throughout the territory of the Russian Federation.

                Any legally capable citizen of the Russian Federation above the age of 18, recognizing and complying with the CPRF Programme and Charter, registered with and participating in the work of a primary party cell and regularly paying membership dues can be a member of the CPRF.

                The CPRF flag is a red piece of drapery. The CPRF anthem is the “Internationale”.

                A new edition of the CPRF Programme is up for adoption at the 13th Congress of the CPRF

                The current Party Programme was adopted in 1995. On the whole it has withstood the test of time and its main provisions remain valid.

                The text of the new edition of the programme is the result of several years of work. The need to draft it was proclaimed by the 10th party congress in 2004. On February 8, 2006 the Presidium of the CC CPRF and the Programme Commission launched an appeal “To our Party and its supporters” calling for a more active discussion of the new edition of the programme.
