Socialist Party of the Islands (in Catalan: Partit Socialista de les Illes) was a political party in the Balearic Islands, Spain.

History

PSI was formed in 1975 by a sector of the socialist movement who wanted emphasis on the nationality question. PSI was part of the Federation of Socialist Parties and, together with the Socialist Convergence of Catalonia (CSC) and the Socialist Party of the Valencian Country (PSPV), part of the Socialist Coordination of the Catalan Countries.[1]

In 1977, PSI was bifurcated into two separate parties, Majorca Socialist Party and the Socialist Party of Minorca.
