The Social Democratic Party (Persian: فرقه اجتماعیون عامیون, romanized: Ferqa'ye Ejtemāʿīyūn-e ʿāmmīyūn) was a political party formed by Persian emigrants in Transcaucasia with the help of local revolutionaries, maintaining close ties to the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party and Hemmat Party.[1][2]
It was the first Iranian socialist organization.[4]
The party created its own mélange of European socialism and indigenous ideas and upheld liberalism and nationalism. It maintained some religious beliefs[1] while being critical of the conservative ulama[1] and embracing separation of church and state.[3]
