Variants

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Anti-Colonial Nationalism

Anti-Colonial Nationalism is a form of left-wing nationalism that focuses on decolonization and anti-imperialism. Because of colonialism’s creation of state and country lines across ethnic, religious, linguistic and other historical boundaries, anti-colonial nationalism is largely related to land first. After independence, especially in countries with particularly diverse populations with historic enmity, there have been a series of smaller independence movements that are also defined by anti-colonialism.

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Armenia

Left-Wing Nationalists have played a crucial role in Armenian history. The first main Armenian Left-Wing Nationalist group was the Armenian Revolutionary Federation also known as Dashnaks. It was founded by 3 Armenians in the Russian Empire (Stepan Zorian, Christapor Mikaelian, and Simon Zavarian) with the goal of gaining autonomy in Armenian areas of the Ottoman Empire through means of violent rebellion. They had adopted a program that included socialism and agrarian reform as well as freedom of speech, press, and religion. They enjoyed support from the Tsarist government of Russia and participated in many clashes with Azeri (then known as Caucasian Tatar) nationalists. They then blamed many of the anti-Armenian massacres committed by Azeris on the Tsarist government for refusing to take action to stop them. They organized Fedayi[7] groups in which they would clash with Kurdish tribes over land. After the Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Young Turks overthrew the Sultan, Dashnaks became a legal party and some Armenians got seats in parliment, but they didn't get the reforms they were hoping for and cut ties with the Young Turks in 1912. During the Armenian genocide in 1915, many leaders of Dashnaks were killed by the Ottoman military and many lead resistance against the genocide by the Ottomans, specifically in Van. After the genocide, many Dashnaks member vowed to take revenge by killing the perpetrators of the genocide as well as the perpetrators of the 1918 massacre of Armenians in Baku. These assassinations (now known as Operation Nemesis) took place between 1920 and 1922 and assassinated many major Turkish and Azerbaijani officials involved in the genocide and massacres. Some of the most notable assassinated include: Talaat Pasha (one of the 3 rulers of the Ottoman empire at the time of the genocide and considered to be an architect of it), Fatali Khan Khoyski (first prime minister of Azerbaijan), and Cemal Pasha (another one of the 3 rulers of the Ottoman empire at the time of the genocide and like Talaat is widely considered to be an architect of it along with Enver Pasha). Dashnaks held important government positions in the short lived First Republic of Armenia and fought to take Shushi from Azerbaijan. After the Soviets invaded Armenia and Azerbaijan, the ARF was banned and its leaders were exiled to primarily Lebanon where they participated in conflicts there. During World War 2, many exiled Dashnaks members decided to side with the Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Nazis in the Armenian Legion because they promised an independent Armenia. In 1975, the 60 anniversary of the Armenian genocide, a group of Armenians in Beirut, Lebanon formed a group known as the Armenian Secret Army for the Liberation of Armenia or ASALA. Its ideology was based on a fusion of Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Marxism–Leninism and Armenian nationalism, seeking to unite the Armenian SSR with Artsakh, Nakhichevan, and all of former western Armenia into a single Armenian state under the Armenian SSR. Most of their attacks were aimed at Turkish diplomats and their attacks resulted in the deaths of around 46 people. They developed ties with other leftist minority groups in Lebanon such as the Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Kurdistan Workers' Party and the Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. After an attack on [removed] airport near Paris in 1983, the group split between those who agreed with it and those who disagreed with it leading to 2 separate groups, ASALA-Militant lead by Hagop Hagopian and ASALA-Revolutionary Movement lead by Armenian-American Monte Melkonian. They started to slowly fall apart after this split and the last attack claim by ASALA was in 1997. Monte Melkonian went on to command the Artsakhi army in the First Nagorno-Karabakh war and became the national hero of Armenia after his death.

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Euskadi Ta Askatasuna

The Basque Nationalist group Euskadi Ta Askatasuna (Basque Homeland and Liberty) or ETA, was originally started as a Basque student group known as Ekin founded in the 1950s. The group ETA itself was founded in 1959 as Aberri Ta Askatasuna or ATA but since in some Basque dialects ata means duck, they decided to change it to ETA. They were largely inspired by Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Marxism and Basque Nationalism as well as the Basque Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Independence Anarchist Federico Krutwig. They held their first assembly in Bayonne, France in 1962 and held later assemblies in later years in which they affirmed their Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Anti-Capitalist positions. They started their attacks against the Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination Francoist government of Spain in 1968 when a police officer was shot dead trying to halt an ETA member. Their most famous attack, also known as Operación Ogro (Operation Ogre), was the assassination of then Spanish prime minister, Luis Carrero Blanco in which they blew up his car, launching him 20 feet into the air, giving him the nickname "Spain's First Astronaut" in Spain and the Basque Country. This assassination is considered an important factor in the Spanish transition to democracy, since they had killed Franco's main successor. After the death of Franco and the Spanish transition to democracy, the group had lost much of the support it previously had. The Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination French government, which had previously left them alone due to Franco's large human rights abuses against Basques, no longer turned a blind eye to them. They signed a permanent ceasefire in 2011, destroyed their weapons in 2017, and dissolved entirely in 2018.

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination India

The Ghadar Movement established on July 15, 1913 by expatriate Indians in Astoria, Oregon, was a part of the larger Indian independence movement against British rule. During World War I, some Ghadar party members returned to Punjab to instigate armed revolution for Indian Independence. They smuggled arms into India and initiated the Ghadar Mutiny which resulted in the execution of 42 mutineers, following the Lahore Conspiracy Case trial. Ghadarites persisted covert anti-colonial efforts with the support of Germany and Ottoman Turkey, known as the Hindu–German Conspiracy. After the war ended, the party in the United States fractured into a Communist and an Indian Socialist faction. The party formally dissolved in 1948. Although its attempts at overthrowing the British Raj were unsuccessful, the insurrectionary ideals of the Ghadar Party influenced the individuals of the Indian Independence Movement which were at opposition to Gandhian nonviolence.

Irish nationalism has been left-wing since its mainstream inception. Early nationalists during the 19th century such as the United Irishmen in the 1790s, Young Irelanders in the 1840s, Fenian Brotherhood in the 1880s, as well as Sinn Féin, and Fianna Fáil in the 1920s all styled themselves in various ways after French left-wing radicalism and republicanism. This combination of nationalism with left-wing positions was possible as the nation state they sought was envisaged against the backdrop of the more socially conservative and pluri-national state of the Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination United Kingdom.
