		But the failure of the revolutions of 1848 caused a decline in socialist action in the following two decades, and it was not until the late 1860s that socialism once more emerged as a powerful social force.
		Ferdinand Lassalle, founder of the first workers’ party in Germany (1863), promoted the idea of achieving socialism through state action in individual nations, as opposed to the Marxian emphasis on international revolution.
		In the United States, the ideological issue led to a split in the Socialist Labor party, founded in 1876 under strong German influence, and the formation (1901) of the revisionist Socialist party, which soon became the largest socialist group.

	Netherlands: Dutch general elections - a lost opportunity for the Socialist Party
		On this occasion, all the smaller parties had to contend with the pulling power of the two main established parties, the CDA and PvdA, which were engaged in a tight race to become the largest party in parliament.
		However in spite of the brave face of SP party leader, Marijnissen, when the election results were announced on 22 January, it became clear that the party had gained no extra seats at all.
		As a principled socialist opposition to whatever new right wing coalition is formed, including mobilising working people, the poor, the unemployed and the discriminated against minorities, against cuts and war, the SP could have begun the struggle to make further considerable electoral gains win an overall majority by the next elections.

	Socialism Today - The Netherlands' abrupt awakening
		At present, the Socialist Party (SP) in The Netherlands is the only party that reflects the interests of ordinary people, consistently fighting against the neo-liberal policies of the last government.
		The Socialist Party was originally a Maoist group that has developed into a broadly-based party with 30,000 members and a sizeable representation in parliament.
		But when the party, with Wim Kok taking the leadership in 1986, started its election campaign it made it clear that its only purpose was to oust the Liberal Party (conservatives) from the coalition with the Christian Democrats and form a government with the Christian Democrats itself.

	Socialist Alliance founding conference
		A mass socialist party would commit itself to direct action: to struggle in the workplaces and on the estates, to demonstrations and mass agitation, defiance of the police and the courts.
		Such a party will need to achieve a genuine life and momentum of its own, with a fully democratic structure, a constitution, regular conferences, the direct election of a leadership, and the right of free debate for all shades of socialist opinion, including guaranteed tendency rights.
		We congratulate all participants of the Socialist Alliance Meeting and we are sure that the platform to the election in December 2001 will be done with the most pure socialist ideal and it will strength the international solidarity between socialist, progressive and democratic Parties and organizations around the world.

	Netherlands: Dutch Socialist Party makes big election gains
		The SP in coalition with any of these parties would be expected to act as a ‘left cover’ for attacks on the living standards of workers and for attacks on immigrants.
		It would follow the same path as the Labour Party, which previously was regarded as a party for working people until years of pro-bosses’ policies in government saw it lose that traditional support.
		As party of a ‘grand coalition’, the SP leaders would be expected to go along with the Netherlands imperialist policies and pro-US foreign policies (Dutch troops are currently stationing in Afghanistan).
