Algerian Communist Party

The Algerian Communist Party (PCA) was a political organization that promoted Marxist-Leninist ideas and aimed for a socialist society in Algeria. Founded in 1920, it sought to fight for workers' rights, anti-colonialism, and social equality during French colonial rule. Over time, the party faced repression and internal challenges, leading to its decline and eventual dissolution in 1992. Its legacy includes influencing Algeria's political activism and contributing to the country's independence movement, although it never became a major ruling party. The PCA represented a segment of the broader leftist movement seeking social justice through communist principles.
