Mapam resulted in January 1948 from the merger of two Labor Zionist kibbutz-based parties, HaShomer HaTzair (The Young Watchman, which had been founded in 1913 as a youth movement and became a political party in 1946) and Ahdut HaAvoda-Poalei Tziyyon.
The formation of the Labor Party in 1968 caused Mapam to reverse its previous opposition to unity among Labor Zionist parties and to join an electoral alliance (Maarakh--Alignment) with the Labor Party in 1969.
There was much criticism within Mapam that, as the junior partner of the Alignment, the party seemed excessively subservient to Labor's status-quo oriented policies, particularly on the issue of the future of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.
