IWUSP criticized the other two Internationals for what it perceived to be dogmatism, and meant that more consideration should be given to the particularities of the political situation in each country. IWUSP was heavily influenced by Austromarxism . IWUSP worked for the unification of the 2nd and 3rd Internationals, something which eventually failed. In 1922 a meeting was held with delegations from the three different international bodies to discuss a merger, but unity could not be achieved and the ComIntern withdrew from the talks. In Germany in the fall of 1922 , the USPD, one of the main components of IWUSP, merged with the SPD , a member of the Second International. In the spring of 1923 IWUSP merged with the Second International to form the Labour And Socialist International . Some, such as the Independent Socialist Party (Romania) refused to join the new body. The secretary of IWUSP was the Austrian Friedrich Adler of the SPÖ . IWUSP published ''Nachrichten der Internationalen Arbeitsgemeinschaft Sozialistischen Parteien'' (News of IWUSP). Official names of IWUSP in major languages:
Since IWUSP was heavily dominated by Germanic parties, the German abbreviation IASP was commonly used. |
