Socialist Workers Youth of Saarland (German: Sozialistische Arbeiter-Jugend des Saarlandes, abbreviated 'SAJ') was a socialist youth movement in the Saar. SAJ was founded on October 26, 1952, at the restaurant of the Saar Landtag in Saarbrücken. The founding of SAJ had been preceded by the break between the Socialist Youth League (BSJ) and the Saar Social Democratic Party (SPS). SAJ was launched as the new SPS youth wing.[1]
