PPP (Peoples Progressive Party) is a symbol that has dominated the political consciousness of British Guiana during the past dozen years. It represented a hope for better living during its infancy. It stood for "victory" in the 1953 election, until it was smashed by the British navy later that same year. Again it stood for victory in the elections of 1957 and 1961. Today the leader of the PPP, who is Prime Minister of British Guiana, is pledged to demand immediate and complete independence of the British Empire.This article can also be found at the Monthly Review website, where most recent articles are published in full.
