	Portuguese Communist Party - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Party orients its members and its activity in the spirit of proletarian internationalism, of cooperation between the Communist parties and revolutionary and progressive forces and of solidarity with the workers of other countries.
		The congress was attended by about a hundred members of the Party and asserted its solidarity with Socialism in the Soviet Union and the need for a strong struggle for similar policies in Portugal; it also stated that a Fascist uprising in Portugal was a serious threat to the Party and to the country.
		The Party then asserted its complete support for this change and of the Agrarian Reform process that implemented collectivization of the agricultural sector and the land in a region named the "Zone of Intervention of the Agrarian Reform," which included the land south to the Tagus River.

		Unlike the Communist organizations of Eastern Europe and the USSR, the Chinese Communist party (CCP) was able to stem the tide of democratic protest in the late 1980s.
		The party's membership was decimated in the 1950s by the investigations of Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy and by revelations about the despotic rule of Joseph Stalin in the USSR; by the 1980s, membership in the CPUSA had fallen to a few thousand.
		Party control is tightest in governmentoffices and in urban economic, industrial, and cultural settings; it is considerably looser in the rural areas, where themajority of the people live.

		The whole of the PCP's political, social, parliamentary and local authority activity must be constantly imbued with the aim of defending and advancing the rights and aspirations of the working people as the essential condition for the development, progress and fuller democratisation of Portuguese society.
		Communist workers' cells and other organisations play a decisive role in raising the social awareness and class solidarity of working people, in forging a class identity that includes the new strata and generations of salaried workers, in enabling a shift from a social consciousness to a more advanced political consciousness, and in upholding the PCP.
		The strengthening of the Party, by means of improved contacts with working women, demands of communists more attention and action in the area of information about working women's rights and in mobilising for their defence and fulfilment, as well as about the Party's struggle for equality in work and life.

		The party came close to seizing power in 1975 but failed because moderate elements within the armed forces and the political parties to the right of it were committed to Western democracy.
		The PCP, along with its far-left allies, got 17 percent of the vote in the first democratic election in Portugal in 1975, and for several elections after that it held its position at approximately 12 to 19 percent of the vote.
		The collapse of the communism in Europe, the aging of the party's leadership (the party had been headed by Álvaro Cunhal since 1941) and of its membership, and the party's poor showing in elections indicated that the party would either have to transform itself fundamentally or fade away as a political force.

		It was during a Socialist Party (PS) government that, while forbidding the direct deduction of the trade union dues in the workplaces, with the confessed purpose of «breaking the backbone of the trade union movement», it was clearly understood that the financial pressures could be a way for the submission of the trade union movement.
		The communists, being a large majority of the trade union leaders at all levels, from the Unions to the Confederation, are the most influential political-ideological force of the trade union movement.
		The organization of the Party in the workplaces is determining for the elevation of social and class conscience, the elevation of the workers’ political conscience and of support to the PCP.

	Pravda.RU:Portuguese Communist Party united as left fights right
		General Secretary, Carlos Carvalhas (Kar-VA-li-ash), has called on the Portuguese people not to abstain (opinion polls predict a 50% abstention) even though the policies, and politics, of the Socialists in the last six years and the PSD for eight years before them are discredited due to rampant corruption and incompetence from both parties.
		The Portuguese Communist Party is the only one which represents the Portuguese proletariat and which presents viable alternatives for policy.
		In this election, with the slogan “Change for the better, a stronger CDU”, the Portuguese Communist Party, together with the Green Party (forming the CDU, Unitary Democratic Coalition), the Communists stand as a credible alternative after years of centre-left and centre-right incompetence, incoherence, corruption and plain disrespect for the inhabitants of the country.

		It is the only party in the country that denounces the current state of affairs of Portuguese politics.
		All the bourgeois press and the privately-owned TV stations have placed the Communist Party in the headlines, repeatedly refered to the "death" of the party, the "death of communism", the need to "reform" the party and transform it into a "democratic" organisation.
		It gives one food for thought though, that a party already "condemned" to extinction, that is considered by most of the bourgeois analysts of this country simply as an "irrelevant organisation", that such a "marginal" party like the PCP suddenly begins to deserve all of their attention!

		The historic leader of the Portuguese Communist Party, Dr. Alvaro Cunhal, has spoken out against the orthodox wing and moves towards the reformists, claiming that the party needs to adopt a policy of broad dialogue to address its problems.
		The main problem facing the Portuguese Communist Party is firstly, one of organisation and secondly, one of communication.
		Despite the constant efforts of Pravda.Ru to contact this party at its headquarters, through telephone calls, e-mails and direct visits, the numerous contacts made in these meetings expressed interest in collaborating with Pravda.Ru but promises were never translated into action.

	CPUSA Online - 16th Congress of the Portuguese Communist Party, Lisbon
		The PCP is a big, influential, deeply rooted Party; a small example -- the mainstream newspaper, which I received on the plane to Lisbon, had four pages of coverage about the upcoming Congress.
		I think the PCP's discussion about the internal issues/problems is not the exception, but rather, is something that is happening in many Parties, and the way that the they handled it, without big losses, striving for unity and an atmosphere where debate and differences can be accommodated, is very important.
		So, for instance, the question of privatization was a big issue and subject of discussion at the PCP Congress -- the fight against it, the ideological underpinnings of it, the relationship between the collapse of socialism and the attendant attack on the role of government.
