Peruvian Communist Party

The Peruvian Communist Party (, abbr. PCP) is a communist party in Peru that was founded in 1928 by José Carlos Mariátegui, under the name Peruvian Socialist Party (, PSP). The party changed its name in 1930. In contemporary Peruvian politics, the party is often referred to as the PCP (Unity) to distinguish it from similarly named communist parties, such as the Communist Party of Peru (Red Fatherland) and the Communist Party of Peru (Shining Path).

The PCP is headquartered at Plaza Ramón Castilla, Lima, and publishes ' ("Unity") and ' ("Our Flag"). The party participates in the annual International Meeting of Communist and Workers Parties (IMCWP). Provided by Wikipedia
