The Daensist Party is a political party in Belgium that emerged in the late 19th century, primarily in the region of Flanders. Founded by the priest Adolf Daens, the party aimed to represent the interests of the working class and promote social justice. It focused on issues such as labor rights, education, and the welfare of the poor, challenging the existing political order dominated by the elite. The party gained significant support among the Catholic working class and was known for its progressive stance on social issues. Although it eventually declined in influence, the Daensist Party left a lasting legacy in Belgian politics, particularly in shaping the social policies of later parties.
