Second PUM Congress

In October 1988 the second congress of the PUM was held, where it was diagnosed that the country was inexorably heading towards a breakdown of the democratic regime and militarization. Its strategic and tactical proposal was to establish a global shift of the party and the whole of the IU and other left forces, to victoriously confront the confrontation that was looming as the outcome of the current tactical period. This implied organizing an insurrectional strategy in perspective of a military outcome towards 1990, which generated internal tensions and the rupture with moderate sectors of the party.
