Minor political party in China
The Jiusan Society (Chinese: 九三学社; pinyin: Jiǔsān Xuéshè; lit. 'Nine-Three Academic Society') is one of the eight minor political parties in the People's Republic of China under the direction of the Chinese Communist Party.
The Jiusan Society is the seventh-ranking minor party in China.[2] The party's original name was "Democracy and Science Forum" on its informal founding in 1944; the current name refers to the date of Chinese victory in the Second Sino-Japanese War (3 September 1945).[3] The party is a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.[4][5]
