Are there reformist Social Democratic parties with Communism as the ultimate goal?

[heiss93]

Are there any Social Democratic parties that have Communism as the ultimate goal? Between 1870-1917, Social Democrat was interchangeable with socialist and communist, and the entire European worker's movement referred to themselves as such. Most Second International parties, at least paid lip service to Marx, and had the ultimate goal of Communism although they put it far in the future, and in practice followed the parliamentary road.

Most Social Democratic parties abandoned Marxism, either after WW1 or WW2, and became essentially Keynesean welfare parties.

My question is, are there any reformist parties left, that still hope to eventually achieve Communism?

Communist Party USA.

Good question. Die Linke is a reformist party but claims many Communists, along with democratic socialists, and social democrats, as members, I'm sure some of the latter two are open to and share many common goals with the Communists. The Communist tendency isn't reflected in the party line as far as I am aware but a change in leadership occured they could shift more towards the Communist idea, that said if this happened they would probably drop the reformism too.

AKEL in Cyprus and CPUSA may be similar stories.

Definitely Cyprus. The Communist Party runs Parliament and holds the Prime Minister's spot. Not sure how true the party is to communism though. You'd think a communist party would fully implement its program if it had the votes to do it. Compromise is only good if it's necessary. If you have the power to achieve your goal outright do it.

It really depends on what you class as reformist or revolutionary gains.
