INTRODUCTION

History

Al-Hizb al-Shuyuci al-Sudani (Communist Party of the Sudan) was founded in 1946. Influenced by the Egyptian communist movement led by Henri Curiel, with which the Sudanese communists had ties, and a few British army officers, the CPS called itself until 1956 the Sudanese Movement for National Liberation (SMNL). The SMNL had three leaders during its first period of existence: Abd al-Wahhab Zain al-Abidin (1946-1947), Awad Abd al-Raziq (1947-1949) and Abd al-Khaliq Mahjub (1949-1971) and Mohammed Ibrahim Nuggud the present Secretary general of the party since 1971. In 1954 it founded its national organ al-Midan .

During the struggle for independence, which lasted until 1956, the CPS official party line was the self-determination of the Sudanese people. This political line was directed against both Egypt, which strove to form a union with the Sudan, as well as Great Britain which wanted to retain its control over the Sudan. During this period the CPS recruited its members among the new professionals, students and rising working class.

The CPS was active in the trade union movement. It was highly successful in organising the railway workers at Atbara, the centre of the Sudanese railways. In 1950 the Sudan Workers' Trade Union Federation (SWTUF), which became one of the strongest trade union movements in the Middle East, was established under the tutelage of the CPS. The CPS was also able to exert strong influence on the Jazira Tenants' Association, the main cotton growers' trade union. In the 1950s and the beginning of the 1960s the CPS had a considerable number of members or sympathisers in vital sectors of Sudanese society.

Despite these impressive successes, the CPS remained politically weak in an overwhelmingly traditional society that was largely divided into two sects, the Khatmiyya and the Ansar, both of which had formed their own political parties, the Umma Party and the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP). Unable to gain power directly, the CPS' tactic was directed towards the formation of fronts with other organisations. During the first parliamentary elections held in Sudan in 1953 - when the CPS succeeded in gaining one seat - the CPS organised itself as the Anti-Imperialist Front (AIF). In 1955 the AIF tried to form the Independence Front and in 1956 a new attempt was made to form a front with the sectarian parties in the National Democratic Front.

The military coup d'état of 1958 marked the second phase in the history of the CPS. During this period, the CPS was able to extend its power base and to lead the opposition against the military regime. It joined the Front of Opposition Parties (FOP), which included all the former civilian political parties. More importantly, the dominant position of the CPS in the trade unions and the student and professional organisations enabled it to call for a general strike which brought the military regime down during the so-called October revolution of 1964.

The CPS was, however, unable to take advantage of its enhanced position during the civilian regime between 1964 and 1969. During the general elections of May 1965 the CPS won only 11 seats, including the first woman ever to be elected. Out of fear for the rising communist tide, the Muslim Brotherhood launched a highly successful campaign against the CPS, accusing it of being an atheist and anti-Islamic organisation. This campaign ended in the outlawing of the CPS on 24 November 1965. To evade the ban, the CPS reestablished itself as the Socialist Party of the Sudan on 21 January 1967. It won one seat in parliament during the general elections of April 1968.

The military takeover on 25 May 1969 by the 'Free Officers', headed by Ja'far al-Nimeiri, inaugurated one of the most confusing periods in the history of the CPS. A split occurred within the CPS concerning the policy that the party should adopt towards the new regime. One faction of the CPS supported the 'revolutionary army movement' on account of its progressive and anti-sectarian character. Several of its members were appointed ministers. This faction also supported Numeiri's demand that the CPS, following the practice of Egyptian and Algerian communist parties, should dissolve itself and join the government sponsored Sudanese Socialist Union (SSU). The other sections, led by Abd al-Khaliq Mahjub, however, condemned military coups in general and pursued the CPS' previous goal of establishing a broad National Democratic Front in which the CPS would retain its independence. Tensions between the regime and the CPS rose to such an extent that Numeiri dismissed the communist ministers on 16 November 1970. In February 1971 he announced his intention to destroy the CPS, dissolving the communist-dominated students', women's and youth organisations.

To preempt the expected repression communist officers launched a counter coup d'état on 19 July 1971. They arrested Numeiri and declared Sudan a democratic republic. Lack of preparation and strong Libyan and Egyptian intervention led to the failure of the coup, the arrest of communist leaders, and the execution of Abd al-Khaliq Mahjub, al-Shafica Ahmed al-Sheikh and Josef Garang along with communist officers. Direct complicity of the CPS in the coup was, however, never proven. Muhammad Ibrahim Nuqud was elected secretary general only a few weeks after Abd al-Khaliq Mahjub's death.

During the next fourteen years the CPS was outlawed. It joined the opposition front against the regime and continued its trade union and other activities underground. During this period the CPS lost its position as the main non-sectarian political organisation to the Muslim Brotherhood, which formed an alliance with the Nimeiri regime in 1977 and was thus able to build its Islamic organisational infrastructure within the state.

The CPS regained its legality during the 'intifada' of 6 April 1985 when it joined the National Alliance of National Salvation (NANS) which succeeded in terminating the Nimeiri regime. During the general elections of 1986 the CPS won 3 seats, 2 from Khartoum and one from Bahr al-Ghazzal. Despite the participation of the CPS in the last civilian government, the CPS did not put its mark on the political developments during the civilian government which lasted from 1985 to 1989. Having lost its former position in the trade unions and at the universities as a result of the long period of repression during the Numeiri years, the CPS was not able to stem the deterioration of parliamentary politics under the rule of the Umma Party/DUP coalition which led to the third military coup d'etat in Sudan's history on 30 June 1989. This time the military coup led by Umar al-Bashir took an Islamic garb.

After the military takeover in 1989 once again the CPS was banned, together with the other political parties. The CPS is now part of the National Democratic Alliance with the Umma Party, DUP and SPLA, the southern led resistance of John Garang, which wages an armed struggle against the dictatorship of the National Islamic Front (NIF) of Hasan al-Turabi. It supports a democratic regime with autonomy for the South and opposes the establishment of an Islamic state.

The collection

The documents concerning the CPS have been collected in London by members of the party living in Great Britain. The collection consists of published reports of meetings of the central committee of the party, leaflets, pamphlets and other publications, including copies of al-Midan from 1972 to 1999. In addition, the collection consists of publications of the student movement of the CPS, trade unions, and sections of the CPS in Europe.

>In 1997 and 1999 the collection was transferred to the International Institute of Social History (IISH) in Amsterdam, where the documents were described and made accessible for academic research.

Books written by Sudanese Communists, copies of daily newspaper al-Midan during 1985-1989, copies of the Sudan Bulletin and copies of Qadaya Sudaniyya , issued by the branches of the CPS abroad during 1990-1999, have been transferred to the library of the IISH.

Videos of the 40th and 50th anniversary of the CPS, held in 1987 and 1997 in Khartum and London, a cassette of a speech made by Abd al-Khaliq Mahjub in Khartum in 1966 and cassettes of an interview with Mrs. Nimat Malik, the wife of Abdulkhaliq Mahjoub, made in the Netherlands in January 2000, have been transferred to the audiovisual section of the IISH.

The size of the collection is 1.72 m.
