Croatian Pure Party of Rights (Croatian: Hrvatska čista stranka prava or HČSP) is a far right political party in Croatia founded in 1992. The party claims to be an ideological descendant of the identically named right-wing historical party which was active in the early 20th century and which advocated the right to self-determination for Croatia at the time when the country was part of Austria-Hungary and Kingdom of Yugoslavia.
In the Croatian parliamentary election, 2011, a coalition consisting of Croatian Party of Rights dr. Ante Starčević and Croatian Pure Party of Rights won one parliamentary seat, held by Ruža Tomašić from HSP-AS.
The original HČSP was founded in 1904 by the Kvaternik and other factions of the Croatian Party of Rights (HSP), calling on the tradition of one of the Frankovci, a historical right-wing fraction movement of the Party of Rights from late 19th and early 20th century. Like most right-wing parties in Croatia, the HČSP claim a legacy descending from Ante Starčević.
The party was reconstituted in 1992.
The party supports the Ustaša Independent State of Croatia (NDH) and its leader Ante Pavelić. The official HČSP website features celebrations of Pavelić's 120th birthday, and the party members expressed loyalty to him by laying flowers on the grave of his parents, and attending church mass in honor of Pavelić. Luka Podrug, candidate of the HDZ-led coalition for the parliamentary elections 2015, expressed admiration for the Ustaše. At the Split cemetery on April 10, 2006, he celebrated the establishment of NDH saying that it is a "day that every normal Croat respects and celebrates, as a day comparable to their child's birthday"
