revolutionary party

Radical political movement

A revolutionary party is a political organization that seeks fundamental transformation of the existing social, economic, or governmental order rather than gradual reform.

The term most often describes Marxist-Leninist parties aiming to overthrow capitalism: The revolutionary party served as the vanguard of the working class.

It can also apply to any organized movement pursuing radical systemic change through collective action.
