Spain's PSOE

Spain's PSOE (Partido Socialista Obrero Español) is a major political party that champions social democracy and progressive policies. Founded in 1879, it traditionally advocates for social justice, public welfare, workers’ rights, and economic equality. As a center-left party, PSOE has played a significant role in shaping Spain’s modern democratic government, including leading several national administrations. It seeks to balance economic growth with social protections, often supporting healthcare, education, and social programs. PSOE is part of the broader European social democratic movement and aims to promote a fair, inclusive, and sustainable society within Spain and beyond.
