Our project of socialism for Portugal
2 December 2012
PCP has as supreme objectives the construction of socialism and communism in Portugal. One of the essential components of the Party's identity is its project of a new society in which exploitation of man by man is definitively abolished, with the power of the workers, the social control of the main means of production, economic planning and, a decisive condition, the edification of a State that promotes and ensures the most ample participation, initiative and creativity of the masses.
