From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Revolutionary Ukrainian Party (Ukrainian: Революційна Партія України) was a political party in early 20th century Ukraine, founded February 11, 1900.
The R.U.P. was originally founded by students in Kharkiv[1].
Originally, the aim or R.U.P. was the independence of all Ukrainian national elements. What made the R.U.P. unique was the willingness to embrace all political philosophies, including socialism [2].
On the Second Congress of the party the R.U.P. was renamed into the Ukrainian Social Democratic Labour Party (USLDP). Prior to that several split off have taken place : the Ukrainian Socialist-Revolutionary Party (USRP) and the Ukrainian Radical Labour Democratic Party (URLDP).
