 | | The party contested a succession of elections: to the brief Sunningdale Assembly, the February 1974 General Election, the October 1974 General Election and the 1975 elections to the Constitutional Convention. | | | It has its roots in the Vanguard or Ulster Vanguard wing of the Ulster Unionist Party who were opposed to the moderate policies of the party's leader and last Prime Minister of Northern Ireland, Brian Faulkner. | | | The Constitutional Convention was intended to serve as a forum to allow the politicians of Northern Ireland to draw up their own proposals for the political future of the province, though this proved unsuccessful. |

| | H.5 What is vanguardism and why do anarchists reject it? |
| | They argue that a "democratic" party would involve the "[r]egular election of all party full-timers, branch and district leadership, conference delegates, etc. with the right of recall," which means that in the SWP appointment of full-timers, leaders and so on is the norm. | | | This situation is worsened when the party participates in parliamentary elections. | | | This, of course, also applies to the party congress, on paper the sovereign body of the organisation. |

| | Why an Anarchist Organization is Needed... But Not a "Vanguard Party" NEFAC |
| | According to the I.B.T. pamphlet, the Bolshevik party was no longer revolutionary by 1924, not that long after the 1917 revolution. | | | The Bolshevik Party led the Russian revolution when the Bolsheviks were most like an anarchist federation. | | | When the civil war was over, in 1921, they put down the revolt at the Kronstadt naval fortress and defeated internal party oppositions--both of which had called for more working class democracy. |

| | Thus, in the U.S., there are two vanguard parties of the bourgeoisie, the Democrats and the Republicans. | | | This business about a "vanguard party" needs to be clarified. | | | The working class has never had much of a vanguard party in the U.S., that is, a party which has actually led significant parts of the proletariat in struggling for its own interests. |

| | Communist cadres have continued to play an important role in government, as ministers, members of parliament and provincial legislatures, members of provincial executive committees, as mayors, councillors and public servants. | | | Our Special National Congress held eThekwini in April this year boldly and correctly pronounced that we are seeking to build the SACP as a vanguard party of power, influence and activism. | | | We have however decided that as a party of activism our national rally will be preceded by a march to the banks and credit bureaux to officially launch a series of mass activities we shall be embarking upon in the lead up to the Red October Campaign for 2005. |

| | This is the insoluble contradiction faced by the vanguard party. | | | All committees may be elected periodically, but real power lies at the top, in a Political Bureau, or, as in the CPGB after 1943, a Political Committee. | | | These laws are similar to the laws of Physics and Chemistry, and, like these, can be known, understood and applied. |

| | RW ONLINE:MLM vs. Anarchism: Why Do We Need A Vanguard Party |
| | This does not mean that the Party should--or that it is inevitable that the party will entrench itself as a leading group in a way that makes it essentially no different from a bourgeois leading clique. | | | One of the main points raised by anarchism is that there is no need for, no positive role for, a vanguard party--that such vanguard parties constitute elite and unnecessary hierarchical structures which stand in the way of liberation, and where they come to power such vanguards inevitably become new oppressive and tyrannical ruling cliques. | | | There is profound importance to the principle, first set forth by Marx (and Engels) and repeated by Lenin (for example, in "The State and Revolution") that the dictatorship of the proletariat must be a new kind of state, qualitatively different than all previous states. |
