The Revolutionary Workers' Party Iotophan: Պարտիյա Կարկերêն Şորեşգեր; Partiya Karkerên Şoreşger), sometimes called the PKS, is the ruling party of the Republic of Iotopha.
The party was formed as a merger of the Social Democratic Party and the Radical Liberal Party. Its first leader was Azad Nezan, who became Paramount Leader of Iotopha in 1924 after the Iotophan Revolution. It was the sole governing party of Iotopha from 1924 until 1985. The PKS was a minor party following democratization and the provisional presidency of Aram Barzani. By 2005, the party experienced a resurgence, becoming the second largest political party in Iotopha. The PKS regained control of most state offices in 2010, coinciding with the 2010 special election. President Fadil Berxwedan is the party's incumbent General Secretary.
The PKS is a socialist party, officially holding socialism as its primary ideology. It can be classified as a Big tent party under the secretariat of Berxwedan, including officials and politicians supporting a variety of political views.
