The Nederlandse Volksbeweging (NVB, English: "Dutch People's Movement") was a political reform movement established in the Netherlands in 1945, immediately after the Second World War.
With ideologies such as fascism and communism permanently excluded from Dutch politics, the NVB was intended to renew the political landscape in the Netherlands. A doorbraak would have to occur in the pillarized political landscape: politics was no longer dominated by the opposition between Christian and secular parties (the so-called Antithesis). These ideas led to the fusion of three pre-war political parties: the SDAP, the VDB and the CDU into the new PvdA. The founding Congress of this new party was chaired by Willem Banning, a prominent member of the NVB.
