| Description | The Korean Social Democratic Party (Chosŏn'gŭl: 조선사회민주당; MR: Chosŏn Sahoe Minjudang; KSDP) is a political party in North Korea, allied with the ruling Workers' Party of Korea. It was formed on 3 November 1945 as Korean Democratic Party by medium and small entrepreneurs, merchants, handicraftsmen, petite bourgeoisie, some peasants and Christians, out of anti-imperialist and anti-feudal aspirations and demands to eliminate the legacy of Japanese rule and to build a democratic society.
Limited information about the party's activities is published, apart from the name of its leader. The party is currently headed by Kim Yong-dae, whose title is Chairman of the Central Committee of the Korean Social Democratic Party, and vice-president of the Presidium of the Supreme People's Assembly since the election of 2009.
The party came more under the influence of the government over time and today is a part of the Democratic Front for the Reunification of the Fatherland, a group of political parties which make up the government.
As of January 2007, the party had more than 30,000 members. |
