Eight non-Communist parties (八个民主党派)

This refers to the eight political parties other than the Communist Party of China. These parties are those established before the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949, which were then dedicated to the realization of a bourgeois republic in China and supported the CPC in the latter's effort of overthrowing the rule of the Kuomintang. They are independent in organization and enjoy political freedom, organizational independence and legal equality under the Constitution. The eight non-Communist parties are:

1. China Revolutionary Committee of the Kuomintang（中国国民党革命委员会）

2. China Democratic League（中国民主同盟）

3. China Democratic National Construction Association（中国民主建国会）

4. China Association for the Promotion of Democracy（中国民主促进会）

5. Chinese Peasants' and Workers' Democratic Party（中国农工民主党）

6. China Zhi Gong Dang（中国致公党）

7. Jiusan Society（九三学社）
