The Communist Movement of Asturias was founded in 1976 and followed the ideology of Socialism and merged with the Lliberacin party in 1991.
Originally the MCA was a Maoist party, inspired by the Chinese Cultural Revolution, but over the years, specially after 1981-82, the organization gradually abandoned its previous ideologies (Orthodox Marxism, Leninism, Maoism) in favour of more heterodox forms of Marxism.
