Popular Social Christian Party


The Popular Social Christian Party, was a Nicaraguan political party. It was an offshoot of the Social Christian Party formed in the late 1970s when Manolo Morales led schism from the PSC.
The party supported the FSLN against the Somoza regime, but after Somoza's fall from power they ran against the Sandinista's. The PPSC advocated for mixed economy rather than the fully socialist vision of the FSLN.
The PPSC won 6 seats in the 1984 Legislative elections and 3 seats seats in the 1990 elections. In 1992 the PPSC and the Democratic Party of National Confidence formed the Christian Democratic Union.
