The Social Democratic Labour Party of Norway (in Norwegian
Norges Socialdemokratiske Arbeiderparti) was a Norwegian political party in the 1920s. Following the Labour Party's entry into the Comintern

was formed by the minority, who continued its affiliation with Comintern and the Soviet Union
until 1991. The Social Democratic Labour Party was absorbed into the reorganised Labour Party in 1927.
The youth wing of the party was the Socialist Youth League of Norway
.
The party symphatized with the International Working Union of Socialist Parties
from 1921 to 1923, and was a member of the Labour and Socialist International
between 1923 and 1927.
