DescriptionThe Socialist Alliance was launched in February, 2001, by the Democratic Socialist Party and the International Socialist Organisation, and formed by eight left groups and parties on February 17, 2001. Click here to see a list of the parties and what they said about the formation of the Alliance.
The founding conference of the Socialist Alliance took place in Melbourne on August 4 and 5, 2001. The second national conference of the Socialist Alliance took place in Melbourne on May 10 and 11, 2003. The conference decided to take further steps toward making the Socialist Alliance a multi-tendency socialist party. Click here for a full report.

The Socialist Alliance is an anti-capitalist party. We stand for socialism � democratic ownership and management of the social wealth. We believe that a society based on satisfying human need can be created, but only by taking power from the elites who now rule.

We stand for a society run by and for working people, both here, but also internationally. We believe that socialism will be won by the power of the masses on the streets and in the workplaces. We seek election to parliament not to "represent" the movements, but to help build them, resource them, and help them win.

We are active in a number of social justice campaigns and in the trade union movement.
