The party was founded on 30 May 2000 by lawyerMiodrag Miki Vujović.[1]It was sponsored byTV Palma,also owned by Vujović.[2]

In the2000 parliamentary election,the PSP went in coalition with the right-wingParty of Serbian Unity.The coalition won 5.33% of the popular vote and 14 seats, of which 2 were awarded to the PSP. Vujović was famously not listed as a candidate, promising to be the only party president not in the assembly.[3]

The PSP was among the parties requesting a review of the constitutionality of theLaw on the one-time tax on extra profit gained and property acquired by use of special privileges(from 1989 until the summer 2001). The law targeted individuals and parties close to the previousSPSregime.[4]
