![]() | About Category:Left-wing terrorism and related categories
The scope of this category includes pages whose subjects relate to terrorism, a contentious label. Value-laden labels—such as calling an organization and/or individual a terrorist—may express contentious opinion and are best avoided unless widely used by reliable sources to describe the subject, in which case use in-text attribution. Avoid myth in its informal sense, and establish the scholarly context for any formal use of the term. |
Articles relating to left-wing terrorism, terrorism motivated by left-wing or far-left ideologies, committed with the aim of overthrowing current capitalist systems and replacing them with communist or socialist societies. Left-wing terrorism can also occur within already socialist states as criminal action against the current ruling government. The majority of left-wing terrorist groups originated in the aftermath of World War II and were predominantly active during the Cold War.
