The Syrian Communist Party (Arabic: الحزب الشيوعي السوري, romanized: al-Ḥizb aš-Šuyūʿī as-Sūrī) was a political party in Syria founded in 1944 as a division of the Syrian–Lebanese Communist Party, which later split into the Syrian Communist Party and the Lebanese Communist Party.[1]
In 1972, it became a member of the National Progressive Front, the coalition of parties sanctioned by the Ba'athist regime. The party split in two in 1986 with two separate parties claiming to represent the original Syrian Communist Party; the Syrian Communist Party (Unified) and the Syrian Communist Party (Bakdash).
