Communist Party of Argentina (Extraordinary Congress)

The Communist Party (Extraordinary Congress) (Spanish: Partido Comunista (Congreso Extraordinario), PCCE) is an Argentine communist party that advocates for Marxist-Leninist ideals. The PCCE is a part of the Unión por la Patria (formerly Frente de Todos), a Peronist coalition in Argentina. Its name was adopted after a dispute with the Communist Party of Argentina caused a division between its members, resulting in the organization of an extraordinary congress that gave way to the foundation of the PCCE between December 1–2, 1996.
