Communist League of Luxemburg
The Communist League Luxembourg (KBL ) was one of the policies of the Communist Party of China (CPC ) oriented Marxist-Leninist organization in Luxembourg, which existed from 1972 to 1980.
The KBL was the early seventies from the " revolutionary wing " of the politically quite heterogeneous Luxembourg student and student organization ASSOSS ( Association générale des étudiants luxembourgeois ) out. After the exodus of the Trotskyist faction, the Revolutionary Communist League (LCR ) founded in 1971, the rest refused ideologically to the New Red Forum in Heidelberg, one of the predecessor organizations of the Communist League West Germany ( KBW ). After intensive programmatic discussions of Luxembourg Communist League was founded as a cadre organization in January 1972, that took the People's Republic of China as a model.
Already in September 1972 joined a four- person group led by former editor of several journals in the organization and formed a Communist group Luxembourg (KGL ). Another spin-off in 1975 there were with a group then as a Communist Organization of Luxembourg / Marxists -Leninists ( KOL / ML) occurred and Marxist-Leninist issued sheets. A desired union of these two groups, the stronger than the KBL leaning to the policy of the CCP, did not materialize. The KOL / ML returned in the summer of 1978 back in the lap of the KBL, whereby the "unity of the Marxist- Leninists " has been restored. The lawsuit had been resolved during the year 1976.
In December 1978, the KBL called for the establishment of a list of alternatives for the board elections in 1979. At the same time began a questioning of the traditional Marxist- Leninist world view, which finally in May 1980 in the emission of two thirds of the members of the KBL and establishing the ecological and undogmatic Fir led socialism.
A residual group of KBL under the Secretary of the Politburo Charles Doerner was active until the end of 1980. The exact closure date is not known.
Delegations of the Communist Federal Luxembourg visited several times at the invitation of the CPC, the People's Republic of China, including 1973, 1976 and 1979, what was being reported in the Chinese press. Congratulatory telegrams and letters of condolence to the members of the Politburo Charles Doerner and Robert Medernach were occasionally also in the Peking Review cited as contributors from the KBL central organ Red Flag on current political events.
The KBL had a youth, student and student organization with its own magazines, which existed prior to its establishment ( D' Rod Wullmaus, 1970ff. ). The central organ of the KBL was since 1972 the Red Flag, (never end 1980) from 1977 Roude Fändel / Drapeau Rouge.
