Social Convergence (Spanish: Convergencia Social, CS) is a Chilean left-wing political party, founded in 2018 by Autonomist Movement (Movimiento Autonomista, MA), Libertarian Left (Izquierda Libertaria, IL), Socialism and Freedom (Socialismo y Libertad, SOL) and New Democracy (Nueva Democracia, ND). It is part of the leftist coalition Broad Front.[1]
In mid-2019, members of the movement began their process to register as a legally constituted political party.[2]
In November 2019, the Libertarian Left movement and hundreds of militants decided to resign from the party, rejecting the participation of deputy Gabriel Boric in a political agreement for a constitutional plebiscite that emerged after the protests on October 18.[3][4][5]
