Islamic Labour Party
View on WikipediaThe Islamic Labour Party (Persian: حزب اسلامی کار, romanized: Hezb-e Eslâmi-ye Kâr) is a reformist party in Iran and splinter group to the trade union Worker House.[3]
Key Information
A supporter of Mohammad Khatami’s reform program,[3] it is reportedly based on a platform of socially oriented programs and "protecting the rights of the workers and laborers".[1]
The party has been described as either "Islamic left"[11][12][13][14] or centrist[15] within the Iranian political spectrum. It is also classified as associated with the "republican right" faction, which deals with a platform on modernization and economic growth rather than social justice, along with the Moderation and Development Party and the Executives of Construction Party.[16] The latter is considered a historic ally of the party.[1]
Members
[edit]From 1985 to 2001, the party members Abolghasem Sarhadizadeh and Hossein Kamali held office as the minister of labour and social affairs.[3] The minister of cooperatives, labour, and social welfare from 2013 to 2018, Ali Rabiei, is also a member of the party. The party's members have also been representatives in the Parliament of Iran.[3]
