Preferred term

Partido dos Trabalhadores  

Definition

  • The Partido dos Trabalhadores (Workers Party, PT) of Brazil is one the world's largest and most original democratic socialist parties. In the early 1980s, while most left-wing parties elsewhere were moving away from class-based programs, PT's founding members explicitly conceived it as a party representing the interests of the working class.
