The Social and Civic Agreement (Spanish; Castilian: '''Acuerdo Cívico y Social''', ACyS) was a center-left congressional alliance in Argentina, integrated by the Radical Civic Union (UCR) the Socialist Party (PS) and the Civic Coalition ARI (CC-ARI), which acted as an umbrella national electoral alliance at the last 2009 Argentine legislative elections.[3] The Civic Coalition, which was a founder member of the Social and Civic Agreement, left the alliance on 12 August 2010.[4]
During the 2008 conflicts between the Argentine Government and the agricultural sector, most factions of the parties that would later ally themselves into the ACyS took a strong stance against the National Government's agricultural policy. Previously, at the 2007 presidential elections, the Civic Coalition and the Socialist Party ran on a joint presidential ticket, and - since 2005 - both parties plus the Radical Civic Union make up the Progressive, Civic and Social Front alliance in Santa Fe Province that won the provincial Governorship on 2 September 2007 for socialist Hermes Binner.
The ACyS was composed of the following parties in each Province:[5]
