Socialist People's Party (Norway)

Socialist People's Party (Norway)

Socialist People's Party (in Norwegian: "Sosialistisk Folkeparti") was a splinter group of the Norwegian Labour Party (DNA). SF was principally dissatisfied with the pro-NATO/European Economic Community external policies of DNA. A group centered around the magazine "Orientering" had been expelled from DNA. SF was founded in 1961.

In the mid-1960s the youth organization of SF, Sosialistisk Ungdomsfylking, started moving towards revolutionary Marxism, leading to a split in 1969. The SUF broke away, renamed itself SUF(m-l) and launched the Workers' Communist Party (marxist-leninist).

Following the split, Sosialisisk Folkepartis Ungdom became the new SF youth wing. SF lost parliamentary representation in 1969, but in 1972 a DNA MP, Arne Kielland, joined SF.

SF was the driving force behind the formation of Sosialistisk Valgforbund, which later emerged into Sosialistisk Venstreparti. SV can be seen as the direct successor of the SF.
