Socjaldemokracja

Socjaldemokracjalewicowy ruch społeczny wywodzący się z ruchu robotniczego. Współczesne partie socjaldemokratyczne opowiadają się za równowagą między rynkiem a państwem, oraz między jednostką a społeczeństwem, czyli za kompromisem między uznaniem systemu kapitalistycznego jako najefektywniejszego mechanizmu bogacenia się w strefie prywatnej, a demokracją i dystrybucją tego bogactwa w sposób możliwie najbardziej sprawiedliwy, oraz troską o dobra i usługi publiczne. Jest to doktryna pokrewna socjalliberalizmowi oraz niemieckiemu ordoliberalizmowi, i charakterystyczna na przykład dla nordyckich państw opiekuńczych[1][2][3][4][5][6].

An introduction, Palgrave Macmillan, 2012, s. 128, ISBN 978-0-230-36725-8, OCLC 779097284, Cytat: Social democracy is an ideological stance that supports a broad balance between market capitalism, on the one hand, and state intervention, on the other hand. Being based on a compromise between the market and the state, social democracy lacks a systematic underlying theory and is, arguably, inherently vague. It is nevertheless associated with the following views: (1) capitalism is the only reliable means of generating wealth, but it is a morally defective means of distributing wealth because of its tendency towards poverty and inequality; (2) the defects of the capitalist system can be rectified through economic and social intervention, the state being the custodian of the public interest […].
