Scouting controversy and conflict: Difference between revisions

Scouting has been banned in certain nations and remains banned in [[List of World Organization of the Scout Movement members#Countries with no Scouting organization|some of them]]. Scouting was banned in nearly all Communist countries, most [[Fascist]] countries, and some countries with [[totalitarian]] regimes such as Afghanistan under the Taliban, Malawi and Iran. Banning has caused Scouting to go underground in countries such as Poland, Franco's Spain, and Yugoslavia. The USSR banned Scouting in 1922, creating a separate [[Young Pioneer organization of the Soviet Union]], which gave birth to the [[Pioneer Movement]], still existing in some fashion in the People's Republic of China, Cuba, North Korea, Vietnam, and Tajikistan.
