Socialist democracy is not, a luxury and its need is not limited to the most advanced industrial countries.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Socialism, as I understand it, is a system of democracy. Without democracy, there is no socialism.
Socialism's not a word that I use. I say 'social democracy' because I don't think the government needs to own all the means of production.
But we don't have an example of a democratic society existing in a socialist economy - which is the only real alternative to capitalism in the modern world.
Democracy is the wholesome and pure air without which a socialist public organization cannot live a full-blooded life.
Democracy is not compatible with capitalism but is congruent with a version of democratic socialism in which the wealth, resources, and benefits of a social order are shared in an equitable and just manner.
Democracy is the road to socialism.
Socialism is nothing but the capitalism of the lower classes.
You cannot make a socialist revolution without really trying.
Socialism is nothing more nor less than the social, political and ideological system which breaks the fetters upon economic growth created under capitalism and opens the way to a new period of economic and social expansion on a much larger scale.
Democracy is indispensable to socialism.
