Japan Revolutionary Communist League, National Committee (革命的共産主義者同盟全国委員会, Kakumeiteki Kyōsanshugisha Dōmei, Zenkoku Iinkai) is a Japanese far-left revolutionary group, often referred to as Chūkaku-ha (中核派, "Central Core Faction") in Japanese. Their main goal is to have Japan, and the entire world, adopt communist policies. Chūkaku-ha rejects imperialism and Stalinism.

The group is led by Takeo Shimizu, who became the chairman in 1997.

The Japanese National Police Agency reports that as of 2020, 4,700 members are active in Chukaku-ha.
