Left Socialists ( da, Venstresocialisterne) was a political party in Denmark. The party worked on what it called an "undogmatic revolutionary and Marxist basis". It was formed in 1967 as a split from the
Socialist People's Party (SF).
In 1989 the Left Socialists founded the
Red-Green Alliance with the
Communist Party of Denmark
The Communist Party of Denmark ( da, Danmarks Kommunistiske Parti, DKP) is a communist party in Denmark. The DKP was founded on 9 November 1919 as the Left-Socialist Party of Denmark (, VSP), through a merger of the Socialist Youth League and ...
and
Socialist Workers Party to contest in elections. At its congress in 1998 the Left Socialists transformed itself from a party to an association. Since then, VS concentrated most of its work towards building of the Red-Green Alliance. It continued to publish ''Solidaritet'' (Solidarity) and maintained a website, but except for that it had little activity of its own. ''Solidarity'' later became an independent publisher.
On 8 September 2013, the Left Socialists disbanded, explaining they did not want to be a "party within the party".
