This article lists political parties in Spain.
Spain has a multi-party system at both the national and regional level. Nationally, there are five dominant political parties: Podemos (left-wing), PSOE (centre-left), Ciudadanos (centre-right), Partido Popular (centre-right to right-wing) and Vox (right-wing to far-right).
The current makeup makes it difficult for any other formation or coalition to achieve an electoral majority in the bicameral Cortes Generales (consisting of both the national Congress of Deputies and regional representation in the Senate). Regional parties can be strong in autonomous communities like Catalonia and the Basque Country and are often essential for national government coalitions.
National political formations of Spain
- Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (Partido Socialista Obrero Español, PSOE) — mainstream centre-left social democratic party linked to General Union of Workers (Unión General de Trabajadores, UGT) trade union. Along with its Catalan instance, the Socialists' Party of Catalonia (Partit dels Socialistes de Catalunya, PSC), it currently conforms the largest group in Congress.[1] The party has governed from 1982 to 1996, from 2004 to 2011 and since 2018.
- People's Party (Partido Popular, PP) — mainstream centre-right to right-wing party, that is conservative, Catholic and economically liberal and which conforms the second-largest group in Congress and leads the parliamentary opposition. It has established alliances with regional right-of-centre parties such as Asturias Forum (Foro Asturias) and Navarrese People's Union (Unión del Pueblo Navarro, UPN). The People's Party originates from the People's Alliance (Alianza Popular, AP) refoundation in 1989.[2] The party has governed from 1996 to 2004 and from 2011 to 2018.
- Vox — a right-wing to far-right, Spanish nationalist party splitted from the People's Party in 2014[3] whose main ideologies are social and national conservatism, economic liberalism and centralism (i.e. strong opposition to Spain's peripheral nationalisms). Vox opposes LGBT movements in Spain[4] while endorsing anti-LGBT rhetoric abroad,[5][6] rejects european federalism[7] and defends narrowing the naturalisation of immigrant individuals of maghrebi origin.[8] It has allied to other right-wing to far-right political parties from Latin America,[9][10] Italian Brothers of Italy[11] and Hungarian Fidesz.[12]
- United We Can (Unidas Podemos, UP, formerly known as Unidos Podemos) — an anti-austerity left-wing electoral alliance led by the leftist 2014-founded party We Can (Podemos). The alliance is also formed by the United Left (Izquierda Unida, IU), which is associated with Workers' Commissions (Comisiones Obreras, CCOO) trade union, as well as by the green-left Green Alliance (Alianza Verde, AV)[13] and other left-wing parties. This political space is branded differently in Galicia[14] and in Catalonia.[15] United We Can forms a coalition government with PSOE since 2020[16] and is related and overlapping, but not equivalent, to the 2022-founded left-wing electoral platform Unite (Sumar), led by the PCE-affiliated Minister of Labour Yolanda Díaz.[17][18]
- Citizens (Ciudadanos, Cs) — a centre-right[19] liberal and Spanish nationalist party. It supports a high degree of political decentralization, but it rejects autonomous communities' right to self-determination. In 2019, its popular support sharply declined.[20][21] The party has established electoral alliances with the People's Party in Navarre[22] and in the Basque Country.[23]
- More Country (Más País, MP) — a progressive green party originated around the Madrid-based More Madrid (Más Madrid, MM) party in 2019. More Madrid itself originates from Madrid Now (Ahora Madrid) a local We Can-related alliance.[24] The party has an electoral alliance with the ecologist Greens Equo (Verdes Equo, Q)[25] party and the left-wing valencianist Commitement (Compromís) coalition.[26] More Country and Greens Equo have also joined United We Can member parties in Andalusia.[27]
