Nuremberg Congress of 1868
the Fifth Congress of the Union of German Workers’ Societies (founded 1863), held from Sept. 5–7, 1868. After a sharp debate, the Nuremberg Congress adopted a program based on that of the First International and passed a resolution to join the International. The congress committed the leadership and members of the union to the struggle for centralized trade unions. In a special resolution, the congress condemned the regular army and demanded that it be replaced by a popular militia. The struggle against militarism was declared to be a necessary condition for the creation of a united and free Germany. A. Bebel was reelected chairman of the union’s executive committee, a post he had held since 1867. The Nuremberg Congress of 1868 was an important stage in the emergence of an independent party of the German proletariat. Want to thank TFD for its existence?
