The Christian Socialist Union, abbreviated as CSU, was a christian democratic and socialist party in the Tarperti Confederation. Founded in 1925 as an official split from the Conservative Democratic Party. It was in a coalition with the Communist Party until 1986.
It contested in the 1990 Tarperti federal election under the Anti-fascist Front. The party was dissolved in 1992 after the National Party of Tarper passed the Enabling Act which made it into the sole legal party.
