Socialist Labor and Revolutionary Cooperative

The Sozialistische Arbeits- und Revolutionsgenossenschaft (SARG, English: Socialist Labor and Revolutionary Cooperative) is a German union of cooperatives and former student society, modeled after anarcho-syndicalism and Meleism.
Founded in the University of Augsburg in the 2000s, the society began advocating for democratic socialism locally and soon spread nationally to include student societies from cities like Wien or Darmstadt. After the founders had finished their masters in finance, they transformed the student society into a worker cooperative of tax consultants, however the Meleist think tank still remains active. Later more cooperative businesses of the economic and political scientific sector joined the SARG.
The SARG is a member of the Fifth International and closely aligned with the Alldeutscher Bund der Arbeit (ABA, English: All-German Federation of Labor), Germany's largest confederation of Meleist labor unions as well as the Meleist wings of the SPD and KPD. Many members of the SARG decided to join the electoral alliance Schwarzrote Liste (English: Black and Red List) to compete in the 2023 German federal snap election, while also advocating for the establishment of a Meleist party known as Soziale Volkspartei Deutschlands (SVD, English: Social People's Party of Germany).
