The Party for the Open Society (Czech: Strana pro otevřenou společnost, SOS) is a minor social liberal political party in the Czech Republic.

The party origins were in the

parliamentary elections in 1996
, and amid political disagreements over the nationalist views of ex-members of the LSNS, many Free Democrats left the party in 1997, forming the Party for the Open Society in 1998, with 120-150 members.

The party's political programme places highest importance on

2010 parliamentary elections
, instead urging its supporters once again to support the Green Party.

SOS also supports the Club of Committed Non-Party Members and other liberal parties. The independent senator Soňa Paukrtová was nominated for re-election by SOS, and was re-elected on 28 October 2006.
