Cuban Socialist Party

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Cuban Socialist Party (Spanish: Partido Socialista Cubano) was a political party in Cuba. The party was founded in March 1899 by Diego Vicente Tejera. The founding of the Socialist Party represented the first attempt in Cuban history to build a political party representing the working class.[1]

The activities of the party were limited to the city of Havana. The party was dissolved in July 1899, and Tejera joined the Cuban National Party.[2]
