The Workers' Socialist Organization was established by a dissident fraction which broke away from the Communist Vanguard of the Revolutionary Workers' Party in 1978. [1] It was led by Sonia Montafto. [2]
In 1979 the OST allied with the Socialist Party-One and its candidate Marcelo Quiroga Santa Cruz. [3]
In 1980 the OST allied with the Revolutionary Party of the Nationalist Left and its candidate Juan Lechín Oquendo. [4]
