(October 2009) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) History[edit] After the independence of Slovenia former young socialists claim to have restarted the liberal tradition of former Austria-Hungary. Their organized liberalism became a major political force. The Liberal Democracy of Slovenia (Liberalna demokracija Slovenije, becomes a member of the LI and the ELDR) and profiles itself as a left of center liberal party. Others argue[who?] that there have been no liberal parties in Slovenia since independence in 1991. They say that claims of the former communist youth (ZSMS) and LDS that they represent liberal parties with liberal doctrines are political propaganda and that facts demonstrate that both ZSMS and LDS followed socialist and anti liberal policies.[citation needed] From National Party of Carniola to Democratic Party[edit] 1894: Ivan Tavčar led the Young Slovenes to establish the National Party of Carniola (Narodna stranka za Krajnsko). In Gorizia related groups formed the National Progressive Party in 1900 1905: The Carniolan party is renamed National Progressive Party (Narodno napredna stranka). In Upper Styria related groups formed the National Party of Styria (Narodna stranka za Štajersko)[citation needed] 1918: The three party merged into the Yugoslav Democratic Party (Jugoslovanska demokratska stranka) 1919: The party merged with Serbian and Croatian into the pan-Yugoslav more or less liberal State Party of Serbian, Croatian and Slovene Democrats (Državnotvorna stranka demokrata Srba, Hrvata i Slovenaca). Some of the Slovene liberals did not join JDS and founded Independent Agrarian Party (Samostojna kmetijska stranka) and National-Socialist Party (Narodno-socialistična stranka). Except the name, the latter did not have much in common with German Nazis and could have been described as a social liberal party. 1919: The party is renamed into the Democratic Community (Demokratska zajednica) 1920: The party is renamed into the Democratic Party (Demokratska stranka). Leader is Ljubomir Davidović 1924: A faction, including the majority of prominent Slovene liberals[citation needed] formed the Independent Democratic Party, mainly active in Croatia, Bosnia, Vojvodina and Slovenia 1929: After the royal coup, all parties were banned. 1931: Slovene liberals leaders[who?] joined the government party (Yugoslav Radical-Peasant Democracy - Jugoslovenska radikalno-kmečka demokracija), from 1934 Yugoslav National Party[citation needed] (Jugoslovenska nacionalna stranka). *1935-1941: JNS was in opposition. 1941-1945: Following the Axis occupation of Yugoslavia, political parties were dissolved but continued activities in underground. Facing the communist insurgence, Slovene liberals co-founded the underground national organization Slovene Covenant (Slovenska zaveza).[citation needed] 1945: All democratic parties were dissolved and banned. From ZSMS-Liberal Party to Liberal Democracy of Slovenia[edit] 1989: The Socialist Youth League of Slovenia (abbreviated ZSMS) changes its name into Za Svobodo Mislecega Sveta (For the Freedom of a Thinking World) and is shortly after reorganised into the Liberal Party (ZSMS - Liberalna stranka)[citation needed] 1990: The party is renamed into the Liberal Democratic Party (Liberalno demokratska stranka) 1994: The party merged with the ⇒ Democratic Party, a faction of the Slovenian Greens' and the Socialist Party of Slovenia into the Liberal Democracy of Slovenia (Liberalna demokracija Slovenije), led by Janez Drnovšek From Slovenian Democratic League to Democratic Party[edit] 1989: Oppositionals established the Slovenian Democratic League (Slovenska demokratična zveza) 1991: The party is renamed Democratic Party (Demokratska Stranka), led by Dimitrij Rupel 1994: Most of the party merged into the ⇒ Liberal Democracy of Slovenia.
