释义 |
The Democratic Nationalist Party (DNP) was a political party in Malta between 1959 and 1966. HistoryThe DNP was established in 1959 by Herbert Ganado as a breakaway from the Nationalist Party.[1] Its opposition to the Labour Party helped it win four seats in the 1962 elections. However, it lost its parliamentary representation in the 1966 elections and was subsequently disbanded.[2] IdeologyThe party was more progressive than the Nationalist Party, and sought a return to responsible government,[1] which had been revoked in 1959. Whilst the NP refused to co-operate with the British authorities, the DNP supported co-operation in order to achieve economic development that would ultimately lead to independence as a dominion.[1][2] The party also had a manifesto committing to social welfare.[2] References1. ^1 2 Vincent E McHale (1983) Political parties of Europe, Greenwood Press, p631 {{ISBN|0-313-23804-9}} {{Maltese political parties}}{{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Democratic Nationalist Party (Malta, 1959-66)}}2. ^1 2 McHale, p632 6 : Defunct political parties in Malta|Political parties established in 1959|Political parties disestablished in 1966|Maltese nationalism|1959 establishments in Malta|1966 disestablishments in Malta |
