TheVolkssozialistische Bewegung Deutschlands/Partei der Arbeit (VSBD/PdA) orPeople's Socialist Movement of Germany/Labour Party was a Germanneo-Nazi organization led byFriedhelm Busse.
Founded in 1971 and banned in 1982, it used a stylizedeagle on a shield bearing a stylizedCeltic cross and theWolfsangel as its party emblems. At a time when thefar-right in Germany was distancing itself from mainstream Nazism, the VSBD/PdA took the lead by supportingStrasserism, the more socialist-leaning version ofNazism.[1] TheJunge Front (Young Front), a youth movement attached to the party, was also organised.[2]
Despite its name, the movement was not a registered party, which allowed theGerman Minister of the Interior to ban it in 1982 as an organization opposing theconstitution. Usage of the stylized Celtic crosswas outlawed as well unless used in an innocuous context.[3] Soon afterwards, many of its former members founded theNationalist Front, which can be seen as a successor to the VSBD/PdA.
