The Russian Communist Workers' Party (in

Russia. It was established in November 1991 with the aim of resurrecting socialism and the Soviet Union

. It published a newspaper called Trudovaya Rossiya (Трудовая Россия; Working People's Russia) and the journal Sovetskiy Soyuz (Советский Союз; Soviet Union).

History

The party was established on 23 November 1991 by members of the anti-revisionist platform of the

1991 Soviet coup d'état attempt against Mikhail Gorbachev

In 1992 the party joined the National Salvation Front and its members took part in the clashes against forces loyal to Russian President Boris Yeltsin during the 1993 Russian constitutional crisis.

In February 1993, it was one of a number of Bolshevik groups invited to a conference at which the Communist Party of the Russian Federation (KPRF) was established. However, RKRP leader Viktor Anpilov joined with All-Union Communist Party Bolsheviks leader Nina Andreyeva in rejecting the KPRF as reformist and refused to join the new movement.^[1] Despite Anpilov's stance, much of the party's membership, including the entirety of the organisation in RKRP stronghold Kemerovo, defected to the KPRF soon after its establishment.^[1] The party was one of a number of groups barred from taking part in the 1993 Duma elections because they were linked, or perceived to be linked, to the October insurgency of that same year.^[2]

In October 2001, it merged with the Russian Party of Communists to form the Russian Communist Workers' Party – Revolutionary Party of Communists.
