(10) Policy of International Peace and Adaptation of the Military Organization to the Defense of the Country
1. Substitution of a militia for the standing Army, and adoption of every measure, such as reductions of military service, leading up to it.
2. Remodeling and mitigation of the military penal code; abolition of disciplinary corps, and prohibition of the prolongation of military service by way of penalty.
3. Renunciation of all offensive war, no matter what its pretext.
4. Renunciation of every alliance not aimed exclusively at the maintenance of peace.
5. Renunciation of Colonial military expeditions; and in the present Colonies or Protectorates, withdrawn from the influence of missionaries and the military régime, development of institutions to protect the natives.
3. BASIS OF THE UNITED SOCIALIST PARTY OF FRANCE
Adopted January 13, 1905
The representatives of the various Socialistic organizations of France: the revolutionary Socialist Labor Party, the Socialist Party of France, the French Socialist Party, the independent federations of Bouches-du-Rhône, of Bretagne, of Hérault, of the Somme, and of l'Yonne, commanded by their respective parties and federations to form a union upon the basis indicated by the International Congress of Amsterdam, declare that the action of a unified party should be based upon the principles established by the International Congress, especially those held in France in 1900 and Amsterdam in 1904.
The divergence of views and the various interpretations of the tactics of the Socialists which have prevailed up to the present moment have been due to circumstances peculiar to France and to the absence of a general party organization.
