Socialist Refoundation Party (Turkish: Sosyalist Yeniden Kuruluş Partisi) is a Marxist-Leninist and socialist feminist political party in Turkey. It was founded on 24 June 2013 as a merger of far-left factions Social Freedom Party Initiative, Workers' Socialist Party, Socialist Future Party Initiative, and the Movement for Socialist Unity.[3]

The party is one of the participants in the People's Democratic Congress (HDK), a political initiative instrumental in founding the Peoples' Democratic Party in 2012.[4]

The flag representing the Socialist Part of Refoundation is of vertical shape. It is white with the party symbol (red/green/violet) in the center, and the party name and abbreviation underneath. The colors of the star stand for different meanings. Red is for socialism, green stands for environmentalism, and violet for feminism. [5]
