The Italian Reformist Socialist Party (Italian : Partito Socialista Riformista Italiano, PSRI) was a social-democratic political party in Italy.
It was formed in 1912 by those leading reformist socialists who had been expelled from the Italian Socialist Party because of their desire of entering in the majority supporting Prime Minister Giovanni Giolitti. Leading members of the PSRI were Leonida Bissolati, Ivanoe Bonomi, and Meuccio Ruini. [1] In the 1913 Italian general election, the party won 2.6% of the vote and 21 seats in single-seat constituencies spread in almost all the Italian regions; some others, such as Ruini, were elected for the Italian Radical Party. [2] In the 1919 Italian general election, they won 1.5% of the vote and gained 15 seats under the new proportional representation system. [3]
The party was dissolved by the Italian fascist regime on 6 November 1926, together with all opposition parties. After World War II, Bonomi and Ruini launched the Labour Democratic Party as the continuation of the PSRI and positioned it within the National Democratic Union, which comprised the Italian Liberal Party and some former Radicals.

The Italian Socialist Party was a social democratic and democratic socialist political party in Italy, whose history stretched for longer than a century, making it one of the longest-living parties of the country. Founded in Genoa in 1892, the PSI was from the beginning a big tent of Italy's political left and socialism, ranging from the revolutionary socialism of Andrea Costa to the Marxist-inspired reformist socialism of Filippo Turati and the anarchism of Anna Kuliscioff. Under Turati's leadership, the party was a frequent ally of the Italian Republican Party and the Italian Radical Party at the parliamentary level, while lately entering in dialogue with the remnants of the Historical Left and the Liberal Union during Giovanni Giolitti's governments to ensure representation for the labour movement and the working class. In the 1900s and 1910s, the PSI achieved significant electoral success, becoming Italy's first party in 1919 and during the country's Biennio Rosso in 1921, when it was victim of violent paramilitary activities from the far right, and was not able to move the country in the revolutionary direction it wanted.
