Page "Socialist Party (Sweden, 1929)" Paragraph 4

The Kilbom-led SKP held its congress prior to the Sillén-led party.

At the congress there was a debate regarding the character of the party, whether to continue the system of party cells ( the structure of the pre-split SKP ) or whether to become a more open mass party.

In the end the statues adopted by the congress differed little from those of the pre-split SKP.

Party cells remained the basic organization of the party, and in places where no cell existed a party member would be organized in the arbetarkommun directly.

However the criteria for membership was somewhat laxed, the sole remaining criteria was activism in the base level organization.
