TKEP was founded on May 1, 1980 by the People's Liberation Army of Turkey-Unity in Struggle (THKO-MB).
THKO-MB was the pro-Soviet faction that developed out of the crumbles of the original THKO.
In 1990 TKEP suffered a major split as the Communist Labour Party of Turkey/Leninist (TKEP/L) was founded.
When ÖDP split in 2002, TKEP joined the new Socialist Labour Movement (SEH).
