The Workers' Communist Party of France (French: Parti communiste des ouvriers de France, PCOF) is a French Marxist-Leninist political party. The party publishes the monthly newspaper La Forge[1] and is an active participant in the International Conference of Marxist–Leninist Parties and Organizations.
History[]
The PCOF was established on 18 March 1979, on the anniversary of Paris Commune, after a split in the Strasbourg section of the Maoist (PCMLF). The founders of the PCOF were against the pro-Chinese line of the PCMLF, viewing Mao's Three Worlds Theory in particular as revisionist and counter-revolutionary. During the Cold War, the PCOF supported the political line of the Party of Labour of Albania. From October 2011 to March 2016, the party was a member of the Front de Gauche.
