Socialist Party of the Valencian Country
- Socialist Party of the Valencian Country
The Socialist Party of the Valencian Country or PSPV (Valencian: "Partit Socialista del País Valencià"; Spanish: "Partido Socialista del Pais Valenciano") was a small nationalist and leftist Valencian party, mostly confined to the academic world within the University of Valencia.Fact|date=August 2008
In 1978 they decided to merge with the much larger national Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE), to which they integrated. Their name remains in the name of the Valencian branch of the PSOE, officially called PSPV-PSOE, even though it is usually reduced to PSOE only by the PSPV-PSOE itself. This Valencian branch of the PSOE, unlike their Catalan counterpart, does not have a record of having acted independently from the national executive of the Spanish-wide PSOE.Fact|date=August 2008
The PSPV-PSOE was the ruling party in the Valencian Community from 1983 through 1995. The People's Party (PP) has won the elections since, thus turning the PSPV-PSOE as the main opposition party from 1995 to date.
In their general meeting held in September 2008, the party was scheduled to officially drop the PSPV line in their name and change it to PSCV to adjust it to the official name of the territory (Valencian Community, VC) [ [http://www.levante-emv.com/secciones/noticia.jsp?pRef=2008071800_19_473942__ComunitatValenciana-socialistas-quitaran-Pais-Valencia-siglas-para-llama] ] but, eventually, this proposal was discarded and the name was not changed [ [http://www.diarioinformacion.com/secciones/noticia.jsp?pRef=2008092700_12_801824__Alicante-bases-PSPV-vuelco-ponencia-rechazan-cambio-nombre]
