History edit
In 1968, after the May 1968 movement the party split in two factions, one led Josep Pallach i Carolà, with a social democratic ideology; and another, led by Joan Reventós with a marxist ideology. The party fully split in 1974, when the social-democrats created the Socialist Party of Catalonia–Regrouping and the marxists the Socialist Convergence of Catalonia.[2]
