African Democratic Rally
The African Democratic Rally (RDA) is a former federation of African political parties founded after the Congress of Bamako (18-21 October 1946) by Felix Houphouet-Boigny , who became a minister in the French government and the first president of the Republic of Cote d'Ivoire to its independence and Modibo Keita , who became the first president of Mali independent.
His affiliation with the French Communist Party (PCF), the only political party present at the metropolitan Bamako , provokes opposition from many parties and many African territorial harassment by the French colonial administration. At its conference in Bamako in 1957, its economic report notes the weakness of national income in Africa. "The daily income of a resident of the territories overseas is an average of one hundred francs, the same income for an inhabitant of a country in modern Europe is one thousand francs." It also refers to the difference in incomes between the official, worker and peasant, between coastal areas and those inside. The objective of GDR is to increase the national income African to raise the standard of living. For immediate action, the transformation of African economies into modern economies, the liquidation of the legacy of the colonial pact, the gradual integration of African economies into larger assemblies.
May 8, 1950, the GDR finally announced its disaffiliation from the Communist Party and its rapprochement with the Democratic Union and Socialist Resistance (UDSR) facilitated by Ren Pleven Political parties constituting the GDR Ideological Positions
