The Radical Party of the Left (Parti Radical de Gauche, PRG) is a minor social-liberal, and in opposition to its common understanding of its name, a moderate centre-left political party in France advocating radicalism, secularism to its french extend known as laïcité, progressivism, pro-Europeanism, individual freedom and differs mainly from the Social-democrats and the Socialist Party on advocating private property.

The PRG retains some support among middle-class voters and in traditional Radical areas in the South-West, but it only gains parliamentary representation by courtesy of the Socialist Party, with which it has been in close alliance since 1982, often running joint lists or candidates. The PRG is the major left-wing party in Haute-Corse, Hautes-Pyrénées and in Tarn-et-Garonne.

Its President is Jean-Michel Baylet and its Secretary-General is Elisabeth Boyer.

The party's youth wing are the Young Radicals of the Left.
