Second International Founded (1889)

Sun Jul 14, 1889

Image

On this day in 1889, delegations from twenty countries met together in Paris to launch the Second International, a socialist group whose members included Vladimir Lenin, Rosa Luxemburg, Karl Kautsky, and Jean Jaurès.

The Second International continued the work of the dissolved First International, though it excluded many anarchists and trade unions, including the powerful anarcho-syndicalist movement.

Among the Second International's notable actions were its declaration of May 1st as International Workers' Day and March 8th as International Women's Day. The group also initiated an international campaign for the eight-hour working day.
