The People's Socialist Front or Popular Socialist Front (Template:Langx, FSP) was a socialist political party in Portugal, founded in 1974. It was a breakaway group from the Socialist Party.[1]

History

The group was founded in December 1974 by Manuel Serra,[2] a Marxist who had previously attempted to become leader of the Socialist Party. He had been imprisoned for several years during the authoritarian Estado Novo regime.[3] Under his leadership, the FSP took place in violent demonstrations, including riots in Setúbal.[4]

In the 1975 Constituent Assembly election, the FSP received less than 5% of the vote and won zero seats.[5]

The FSP ran candidates in the 1976 legislative election,[1] and participated in the 1976 local election in coalition with the Portuguese Communist Party and the Portuguese Democratic Movement inside the Electoral Front United People.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
