Revolutionary Communist Party (Chile)

The Revolutionary Communist Party (Spanish: Partido Comunista Revolucionario) was a anti-revisionist Marxist–Leninist communist party in Chile that existed from 1966 to 1981. The founders of the PCR belonged to ESPARTACO (led by the Valparaíso senator Jaime Barros Pérez Cotapos), a group that had been expelled from the Communist Party of Chile (PCCh), and the Revolutionary Communist Union, another splinter group of the PCCh. The PCR was led by Jorge Palacios and David Benquis.
