Presentation of GA / SAP

The Gauche anticapitaliste (Anticapitalist Left; GA) in French and the Stroming voor een Anticapitalistisch Project (Current for an Anticapitalist Project; SAP, also SAP Antikapitalisten) is the Belgian section of the (Trotskyist) Fourth International.
In 2017, the Ligue Communiste Révolutionnaire / Socialistische Arbeiderspartij (LCR/SAP) (see below) was renamed into the Gauche anticapitaliste (French) and the Stroming voor een Anticapitalistisch Project (Dutch).
See GA / SAP at Wikipedia in French and in Dutch.

Along with new names,
new logo was adopted as well; it is a rounded square, quartered as follows:

- top left: green with white leaf;
- top right: violet with white female symbol;
- bottom left: red with white clenched fist;
- bottom right: yellow with white megaphone.

Flag of GA / SAP

New flags are nearly square, with a black vertical stripe along the hoist, charged with the party name in white, the rest of the field being quartered into square portions which repeat the design of the logo. The name inscribed is GAUCHE ANTICAPITALISTE in French and
SAP ANTIKAPITALISTEN in Dutch; in both cases, the second word is bolded.

Presentation of LCR / SAP

The GA / SAP was previoulsy known as the Ligue Communiste Révolutionnaire / Socialistische Arbeiderspartij (LCR/SAP).

Tomislav Todorović, 12 October 2021

The LCR/SAP originated in the Ligue révolutionnaire des travailleurs / Revolutionnaire arbeidersliga (LRT/RAL), founded in 1971 in Liège, whose youth organization, Jeune Garde Socialiste (JGS, expelled in 1964 from the Parti Socialiste) supported the coal miners' strikes in Limburg and several subsequent protest movements in the 1970s-1980s.
In 1984, the party was renamed Parti Ouvrier Socialiste / Socialistische Arbeiderspartij (POS/SAP). It won a few seats in the municipal elections held in 2000 and 2006. In 2005, the French name of the party was changed to Ligue Communiste Révolutionnaire (LCR) as a tribute to the French party of the same name (which itself changed its name in 2009 for Nouveau Parti anti-capitaliste [NPA]).

LCR/SAP uses the same flag as the French LCR, a red flag with the yellow writing "LCR" and motto "100% À GAUCHE" (photo, 1 May 2011; photo, 10 February 2011; photo, 15 June 2010).

The Dutch version of the logo (image) used the corresponding abbreviation "SAP" in white and the motto "ROOD" (Red), red on a white panel, all on a red field.

Tomislav Todorović, 3 April 2012

Although the 2005-2017 Dutch version of the logo was modelled after the French version, it was not used on the flags. Instead, the use of red flag with white initials SAP was continued, but the letters were now inscribed in italic version of the same typeface. It is not
currently known when this change was made; the earliest currently known sources are from early 2013, while the latest ones are from early 2017, which means that the changed flag was used until the 2017 change of name and symbols (photo, photo from Anti-Capitalist Spring School, on 2013-03-16; photo from Brussels on 2014-03-23; photo, photo from Brussels on 2015-10-07; photo from Brussels on 2016-05-16; photo from Brussels, on 2017-05-26).

When named POS/SAP, the party used two red flags, inscribed in canton either with the white letters "POS" (French version) or "SAP" (Dutch version) (photo, 20 July 2000).

JGS

The youth branch of the party, JGS, used a red flag charged in the middle with the black emblem of the Fourth International, a "4" superimposed to a hammer-and-sickle, the black letters "POS" in the upper left corner, the black letters "JGS" in the lower left corner, and, most probably (not visible on the photo except a "S" in the lower right corner), the Dutch counterparts of the French acronyms, "SAP" in the upper right corner and "S.." in the lower right corner.
