The Communist Party of Mexico

The Communist Party of Mexico (PCM) was founded in 1919, advocating for Marxist principles, workers’ rights, and socialist reforms. It aimed to promote social equality and challenge authoritarian government structures through revolutionary means. Throughout its history, the PCM participated in political activism and aligned with broader international communist movements, but faced repression and limited legal influence in Mexico’s political landscape. Its influence waned after the Cold War, and it eventually dissolved or merged into other leftist parties, reflecting shifts in Mexico’s political environment and domestic attitudes toward communism.
