Existen varios partidos comunistas activos en diversos países del mundo, y otros que lo estuvieron en el pasado. Se diferencian no solo en su método, sino también en su ideología e interpretación, aunque generalmente se enmarcan dentro de la tradición marxista-leninista .
La formación de partidos comunistas en diversos países fue iniciada por los bolcheviques rusos dentro de la Internacional Comunista . Desde entonces, los partidos comunistas han gobernado numerosos países, ya sea como partidos gobernantes en estados unipartidistas como el Partido Comunista Chino o el Partido Comunista de la Unión Soviética , o como partidos gobernantes en sistemas multipartidistas , incluyendo gobiernos mayoritarios y minoritarios, así como liderando o formando parte de diversas coaliciones.
Muchos otros partidos comunistas no gobernaron ningún país, pero sí un estado o región dentro de un país. Otros también han estado representados en parlamentos nacionales, estatales o regionales . Algunos partidos y corrientes de pensamiento comunistas rechazan el parlamentarismo y, en cambio, abogan por la insurrección o la revolución social, así como por los consejos obreros .
