Communist Action
Political party in Spain
Communist Action (Spanish: Acción Comunista, Catalan: Acció Comunista) was a Marxist organisation in Spain founded in exile in 1964, during the Francoist State. The organisation produced a newspaper entitled Acción Comunista. Among its members were Carlos Semprún and José Antonio Ubierna. In 1970 AC came in contact with workerist organizations like UHP and CRAS (Comunas Revolucionarias de Acción Socialista).[2] In 1976 some of its members, especially in Catalonia, joined the POUM.
AC was legalized in Spain in 1977. In the first democratic elections AC participated in the Front for Workers' Unity, with the Revolutionary Communist League (LCR), the Organization of Communist Left (OIC) and the POUM. After an unsuccessful process of merger with the POUM, AC held a congress of self-dissolution in 1978.
