|flag= |website= |country=Turkey}} The Patriotic Party ((トルコ語:Vatan Partisi), Vatan Partisi) is a left-wing political party in Turkey. The Patriotic Party describes itself as "vanguard party"〔 and aims that bring together socialists, revolutionaries, nationalists and Kemalists.〔(Turkey: Workers' Party changes name to Patriotic Party ). turkishweekly.net. 16 February 2015〕 The party was originally founded in 1992 as Workers' Party. In 2015, after a long-time political repositioning period, the Workers' Party changed its name to "Patriotic Party" during the extraordinary congress.〔("Artık ‘İşçi’ değil ‘Vatan’ Partisi" ). ''milliyet.com.tr''. 16 February 2015.〕 Like the Workers' Party, the Patriotic Party is led by Doğu Perinçek. The party's founding members include former army generals who had been incriminated during the Ergenekon trials and the Sledgehammer case.〔("Vatan Partisi MYK üyeleri belli oldu, işte o isimler!" ). ''Çağdaş Ses''.〕 ==Etymology== The party's Turkish name ''Vatan'' directly translates to ''Motherland'' or ''Homeland'', however the party has adopted the English name ''Patriotic Party''. This is most likely in order not to clash with parties that have a similar name when translated to English, such as the Motherland Party ''(Anavatan Partisi)'' or the Homeland Party ''(Yurt Partisi)''. ''Patriotic'' in Turkish translates to ''Vatansever'' or ''Yurtsever''. The party's official short name (abbreviation) is ''Vatan Partisi'', i.e. the same as the name of the party itself.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Vatan Partisi tüzüğü )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Vatan Partisi )〕 Colloquially the acronym ''VP'' is used. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Patriotic Party (Turkey)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
