Socialist League (Finland)

Socialist League (Finland)

The Socialist League (Sosialistiliitto in Finnish) is a Trotskyist organisation in Finland. It is affiliated to the International Socialist Tendency. From 1995 until 1998 the organisation was known as Communist Youth (Kommunistinuoret).

At its founding the Communist Youth was close to the "new" Communist Party of Finland (SKP) but supporters of the SKP left the organisation after the name change. They founded Communist Youth League of Finland in 2000.

The Socialist League publishes the magazines "Murros" and "Antikapitalisti". The organisation is active in different left led protests.
