The Communist Party of Brazil (Portuguese: Partido Comunista do Brasil, PCdoB) is a political party in Brazil. The PCdoB officially adheres to Marxist–Leninist theory.[4] It has national reach and deep penetration in the trade union and student movements, but little representation in elected positions.
PCdoB shares the disputed title of "oldest political party in Brazil" with the Brazilian Communist Party (PCB). The predecessor of both parties was the Brazilian Section of the Communist International, founded on 25 March 1922. The current PCdoB was launched on 18 February 1962, in the aftermath of the Sino-Soviet split. Outlawed after the 1964 coup d'état, PCdoB supported the armed struggle against the regime before its legalization in 1988. Its most famous action in the period was the Araguaia guerrilla (1966–1974). Since 1989, PCdoB has been allied to the Workers' Party (PT) at the federal level, and, as such, it participated in the Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva administration and joined the "With the strength of the people" coalition, which elected his successor, Dilma Rousseff. In 2018, the party again allied with PT and the candidacy of Fernando Haddad. Haddad's running mate was PCdoB member Manuela d'Ávila. In 2022 it joined the Brazil of Hope coalition with the PT and the Green Party.
PCdoB publishes the newspaper Working Class (Classe Operária) as well as the magazine Principles (Princípios), and is a member of the Foro de São Paulo. Its youth wing is the Union of the Socialist Youth (União da Juventude Socialista, UJS), launched in 1984, while its trade union wing is the Central of the Workers of Brazil (Central dos Trabalhadores e Trabalhadoras do Brasil, CTB), founded in 2007 as a dissidence from the Unified Workers' Central (Central Única dos Trabalhadores, CUT).
Embora ambas as partes reivindiquem a propriedade da história do Partido Comunista do Brasil (PCB) original, fundado em 1922, é a virada gradual do PCdoB de um partido comunista para o aceite de práticas social-democratas, e até uma política de apreço da burguesia nacional, que atualmente define sua localização no espectro político
Enquanto os documentos da recente era do PCdoB mantêm uma lealdade às suas raízes marxista-leninistas, eu argumento, contrariamente à visão geral de Daniel Aarão Reis, que esses documentos foram concebidos para coesão partidária em relação às suas raízes e não correspondem às práticas políticas que predominaram no PCdoB desde o período de democratização no Brasil.
