League of Socialists of the National Movement of Iran ( Persian: جامعه سوسیالیستهای نهضت ملی ایران, romanized: Jāmeʿa-ye sōsīalīsthā-ye nahżat-e mellī-e Īrān) or Society of Iranian Socialists ( Persian: جامعه سوسیالیستهای ایران, romanized: Jāmeʿa-ye sōsīalīsthā-ye Īrān) was a socialist nationalist party in Iran.
The party formally joined the Socialist International upon establishment. [4]
It was founded in 1960 by Third Force activists led by Khalil Maleki and a number of radical nationalists, most of whom had social democracy leanings and some members with Islamic socialism tendencies. Hossein Malek, Ahmad Sayyed Javadi and Jalal Al-e-Ahmad were among people associated with the group. [5]
The organization was a founding member of the National Front (II) [6] and was considered the "extereme left-wing" within the front. [4] It broke with the front and joined the National Democratic Front after the Iranian Revolution. [7] In the 1980 Iranian presidential election, the group supported People's Mujahedin of Iran nominee Massoud Rajavi. [8]
