Tyrol Homeland Federation Party

Tyrol Homeland Federation Party

The Tyrol Homeland Federation Party ("Tiroler Heimatpartei", THP) was a regionalist liberal political party active in the Province of Bolzano-Bozen.

It was launched in 1963 by Josef Raffeiner, former secretary of the South Tyrolean People's Party (SVP) from 1945 to 1947 and then Senator from 1948 to 1958, as a split of part of the liberal and liberal-conservative wing of SVP. In the 1963 general election THP took about 4% in the Province and in the 1964 provincial election 2.4% (Raffeiner was elected to the Council). After that, the party shifted to the right, contrarily to what Raffeiner expected, and was soon disbanded.
