The Pakistan People's Party (Urdu: پاکستان پیپلز پارٹی‎; commonly referred to as PPP) is a centre-left, progressive and social democratic political party in Pakistan. Affiliated with the Socialist International, its political philosophy and position, by country's political spectrum, is considered centre-left.

It has been a major and influential party in the country. Since its founding, the party's leadership has been dominated by the members of the Bhutto-Zardari family. Its centre of gravity lies in the southern province of Sindh.

Since its formation in 1967, the PPP has been voted into power on five separate occasions (1970, 1977, 1988, 1993, 2008).

Famous quotes containing the words peoples, students and/or federation:

    “It is a quite remarkable fact that the great religions of the most civilized peoples are more deeply fraught with sadness than the simpler beliefs of earlier societies. This certainly does not mean that the current of pessimism is eventually to submerge the other, but it proves that it does not lose ground and that it does not seem destined to disappear.”
    —Emile Durkheim (1858–1917)

    “We are students of words: we are shut up in schools, and colleges, and recitation-rooms, for ten or fifteen years, and come out at last with a bag of wind, a memory of words, and do not know a thing.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Women realize that we are living in an ungoverned world. At heart we are all pacifists. We should love to talk it over with the war-makers, but they would not understand. Words are so inadequate, and we realize that the hatred must kill itself; so we give our men gladly, unselfishly, proudly, patriotically, since the world chooses to settle its disputes in the old barbarous way.”
    —General Federation Of Women’s Clubs (GFWC)
