The Labor Party (Spanish: Partido Laborista) was a Panamanian political party.
The initiative to launch the Labor Party began in 1927.[1][2] Founders of the party included Diógenes de la Rosa, Don Cristóbal Segundo and Domingo H. Turner.[2] The party obtained some 1,000 votes in the 1928 general election.[3]
In 1929 the party sent a delegation to the 1st Conference of the Communist Parties of Latin America, at which it announced its publication El Mazo ('The Mallet').[1][4] The delegates of the party were Eugenio Cossani and Jacinto Chacón.[5] At the conference, the party presented itself as 'partly communist'.[3] In August 1929 the party protested against the raising of a bust of US president Theodore Roosevelt in Colón, citing that the monument hurt the 'national dignity' of Panama.[6]
The successor organization of the Labor Party, the Communist Party of Panama (Partido Communista de Panamá, PCP), was officially established in 1930. [7][3] Whilst Segundo and Turner became Communist Party leaders, De la Rosa did not join the new party and drifted in a Trotskyist direction.[2]
