==History==
===The Italian Left and the formation of the Communist Party of Italy===
The Italian Left's origins can be traced back to the struggle of the so-called intransigent revolutionary faction, re-established in 1910 to cure the PSI(Italian Socialist Party) of its reformism. When this faction was revived in July 1917 it was in quite a different context. The 1st World War had been raging for almost three years and the PSI had all but disintegrated under its impact.<br>
The new faction was being resurrected under the impetus of Amadeo Bordiga and the Naples section to which he belonged. At the time, like Luxemburg, Bordiga slowly reached the conclusion that the revolutionisation of Social Democracy was impossible and thus there was a need to forge a communist faction which broke from the Social Democracy of the SPD and the 2nd International.
