Red Bloc

The Red Bloc refers to a group of left-wing or socialist political parties and movements that historically aligned together, especially in Europe and Latin America. They often promote social justice, workers’ rights, and anti-capitalist policies, and tend to coordinate efforts in elections and protests. The term originated from the visual of these groups linking their activities and sometimes wearing red symbols or colors. While the specifics vary by country and context, the Red Bloc generally signifies a coalition of progressive or socialist forces advocating for economic equality and social change.
