New Current

The New Current (Latvian: Jaunā strāva) in the history of Latvia was a broad leftist social and political movement that followed the First Latvian National Awakening (led by the Young Latvians from the 1850s to the 1880s) and culminated in the 1905 Revolution. Participants in the movement were called jaunstrāvnieki. The best-known representatives of the new current were Pauls Dauge, Jānis Jansons-Brauns, Jānis Pliekšāns, Fricis Roziņš, Pēteris Stučka, Miķelis Valters and Elza Rozenberga.[1]
