Republican Alternative (Spanish: Alternativa Republicana, AR) is a Spanish political party formed in 2015 by the merger of various small left-wing republican parties.

History

AR was formed by Spanish Republican Democratic Action, a faction of Republican Left and the Catalan Left-wing Republican Party. The founding congress was held in Vallecas on May 25 and 26, 2013[2]. In its Statutes AR is ideologically defined as left-wing, democratic, republican, radical, secular, federalist and environmentalist[3].

In the municipal elections of 2015 AR gained 2 local councillors, Pedro Gómez in Segorbe (Valencian Community)[4][5] and Gabriel Salguero Lafuente in Montgat (Catalonia)[6].
