The Justicialist Party (Spanish: Partido Justicialista, PJ) is a Peronist political party from Argentina. It is the largest party, and is led by Eduardo Fellner. The current president Néstor Kirchner and former president Carlos Menem are members.

In the Argentine Chamber of Deputies it is the single largest party with 116 of 257 members, and has a majority of seats in the Argentine Senate.

It was founded in 1945 by Juan Domingo Perón. It is a laborer's party, theoretically on a centre-left tendency, based on the works of Juan Peron as a president. In the last decade and a half, however, Carlos Menem applied right-wing policies changing the overall image of the party, and turning it into a "political chameleon".

As of August 2005, the Justicialist party is on the verge of breaking apart, given political conflicts between the current president Néstor Kirchner and the former interm president Eduardo Duhalde. This conflict is reflected in the current campaign in Buenos Aires Province, in which Chiche González (Eduardo Duhalde's wife) and Cristina Fernández de Kirchner (the President's wife) compete for a Senate seat. González's wide loss to her opponent marked, according to many political analysts, the end to Duhalde's dominance over the province.
