Socialist Resurgence is a socialist political party in Italy.

History

RS was founded in 2015 as a party with a socialist standpoint.
On the occasion of the 2018 general elections, the party joined the Power to the People list, together with Communist Refoundation Party, Italian Communist Party, and other far-left parties and associations, under the leadership of Viola Carofalo. However, Power to the People scored 1.1% of the vote and elected no MPs.
In 2022, RS joined People's Union, the electoral list created by Luigi de Magistris to participate in the general elections of the same year. On this occasion, the party's leader Franco Bartolomei is a candidate for the Senate in the single-member constituency "BAT–Murgia", in Apulia.
