The Socialist Party of Vietnam (Vietnamese: Đảng Xã hội Việt Nam) was a political party in Vietnam which existed from 1946 to 1988. It was founded with the official aim of uniting "patriotic intelligentsia". Along with the Democratic Party of Vietnam, the Socialist Party joined the government of North Vietnam.[1] Key leaders of the party included Nguyễn Xiển, who served as its deputy secretary from 1946 to 1956 and as its secretary from 1956 until the party's dissolution in 1988; and Hoàng Minh Giám, who served as the party's deputy secretary from 1956 to 1988 and as North Vietnam's foreign minister.
