Chilean Socialist Party

The Chilean Socialist Party, founded in 1933, is a political organization in Chile promoting socialism and social justice. It advocates for policies that aim to reduce inequality, enhance workers' rights, and improve public services. The party played a significant role in Chilean history, especially during the presidency of Salvador Allende from 1970 to 1973, who was overthrown in a military coup. After years of repression under dictatorship, the party has evolved and continues to influence Chilean politics, focusing on democratic socialism and progressive reforms in contemporary society.
