This article gives an overview of liberalism in Armenia. It is limited to liberal parties with substantial support, mainly proved by having had a representation in parliament.

Background

In the struggle for independence at the turn of the nineteenth to the twentieth century a national liberal current arose.

History

Though there were some attempts to refound the national liberal current after independence, these attempts were unsuccessful. Traditional liberalism doesn't play a role in Armenia any more, but the Republican Party of Armenia (Hayastani Hanrapetakan Kusaktsutyun, not included below) joined the ELDR group in the Council of Europe.
