Syrian-Lebanese Communist Party

Syrian-Lebanese Communist Party (in Arabic: "al-hizb al-shuyū'ī al-sūrī al-lubnānī"), a communist political party operating in Syria and Lebanon founded in 1924 by the Lebanese Egyptian Fu'ad al-Shimali, the Lebanese Yusuf Yazbek and the Armenian Artin MadoyanClaude Palazzoli, La Syrie - Le rêve et la rupture, Paris, Le Sycomore, 1977 ISBN 2862620025] . Its general secretary was Khalid Bakdash.

The party was represented at the 6th Congress of the Communist International in 1928 by Fu'ad al-Shimali . Under the French Mandate it was an underground organization, then legalized in 1936–1939 by the French Front Populaire government, and again in 1941. The party took a new option of collaboration with the nationalist movement and playing down its socialist themes in 1936, in accordance with the 7th Congress of the Communist International in 1935.

Later the party was divided into the Syrian Communist Party and the Lebanese Communist Party, but the decision, taken at the end of 1943, was only implemented in 1964. In between, common central committee and political bureau were maintained.
