The Social Democrat Radical Party (Partido Radical Socialdemócrata) is a social democratic party in Chile. The party is a member of Socialist International.
The party was founded in August 18, 1994, out of a union between the Radical Party (Chile) and the Social Democrat Party of Chile, both of which had received poor results in the parliamentary elections.
The party supported Ricardo Lagos in the 1999/2000 presidential elections, who won 48.0% in the first round and was elected with 51.3% in the second round. At the last legislative elections, 16 December 2001, the party won as part of the Coalition of Parties for Democracy 6 out of 120 seats in the Chamber of Deputies and no seats in the Senate. This changed at the 2005 elections to 7 and 1, respectively.
