The Syrian Communist Party (Arabic: الحزب الشيوعي السوري, romanizedal-Ḥizb aš-Šuyūʿī as-Sūrī) was a political party in Syria founded in 1944 as a division of the Syrian–Lebanese Communist Party into the Syrian Communist Party and the Lebanese Communist Party.[1]

It became a member of the National Progressive Front in 1972. The party split in two in 1986 with two separate parties claiming to represent the original Syrian Communist Party; the Syrian Communist Party (Unified) and the Syrian Communist Party (Bakdash).
