	Progressive Party (Philippines) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Progressive Party of the Philippines - a reformist political party that is considered to be the earliest form of a genuine 3rd force party against the then dominant political pair of the Nacionalista Party and the Liberal Party.
		The party was founded in 1957, in response to the death of former president Ramon Magsaysay, by Manuel Manahan and Raul Manglapus.
		It was intended that the party pursue the goal of promoting reforms in policy and institution, and fighting graft and corruption that was alleged to be common in both the liberal and conservative members of the government in both the local and the national level.

		The Party List System in the Philippines constitutes one of the major political innovations that were introduced by social and political reformers after the 1986 EDSA Revolution.
		In the said election, major political parties were initially banned from participating, thus paving the way for small parties and groups to have representation in the House of Representatives.
		Accordingly, the number ofseats a party or organization is entitled to is calculated on the basis of the proportion accordingly by dividing the votes obtained by a party or organization over the total number of all votes cast for all qualified parties and organizations.

		An advocate of Progressivism (moderate center-left) in its economic and political agenda, the party is currently dormant, and is still seeking support from its core base from the growing educated anti-graft middle-class.

		Since 1946 when it was founded until the advent of martial law in 1972, the Liberal Party (LP) was one of the Philippines’ two major parties, holding power for much of the crucial post-WW II economic reconstruction.

	The history of the Revolutionary Workers Party-Philippines (RPM-P)
		The Communist Party of the Philippines requires its cadres and members to follow the line of Marxism-Leninism-Maoism and pursues the new democratic revolution in order to lead the broad masses of the people and employ effectively both the armed struggle and the united front to overthrow the enemy.
		The changing situation in the Philippines has led to factionalism in the Communist Party, with the Lagman faction abandoning the Party's Sisonite (Maoist)/Stalinist armed vanguardist tradition to become a legal mass organization in unity with the radical workers' centre—Solidarity of Filipino Workers.
		Over the last five years, the groups which form the new party have moved decisively away from their Mao-Stalinist origins, developing a dynamic and pluralist strand of revolutionary Marxism that is quite new in the Philippines.

		Moreover, since 1992, the crisis of the CPP had a direct international impact within the progressive movements, notably because its mass organizations were affected, while they were often playing a significant role abroad; for example, look at the gravity for Via Campesina of the Philippine Peasant Movement (KMP) implosion.
		In more than one way, the solidarity with the Filipino progressive and revolutionary movements threatened by the CPP is a death or life question.
		Since then, in the Philippines, the term “reaffirm bloc” (or RAs) is used to design the various organizations identified with the line of the CPP; and the term “reject” (or RGs) designs the groups formed after the 1992 process of expulsions and splits.
