Communist Party (Sweden)

	Socialism - MSN Encarta
		The socialist doctrine demands state ownership and control of the fundamental means of production and distribution of wealth, to be achieved by reconstruction of the existing capitalist or other political system of a country through peaceful, democratic, and parliamentary means.
		These are the tenets of the Socialist party of the U.S., the Labour party of Britain, and labor or social democratic parties of various other countries.
		In 1901 a moderate faction of the party under Morris Hillquit joined with the Social Democratic party of Eugene V. Debs and the Christian Socialists of George D. Herron to form the Socialist party.

	A New Socialist Economics
		While most socialists have for many years opposed a crude blanket nationalization of the economy, two arguments remain over the method and extent of which socialization should be implemented under a democratic socialist government.
		Socialists have rather happily come to the conclusion (some more quickly than others) that any publicly owned entity must be as decentralized as possible to assure accountability and community control, while remaining centralized enough to ensure efficient delivery systems.
		The goal of a socialist society in this regard is then to ensure that enterprise and trade is fair and unexploitative of the people and their interests, and that the welfare of society is not endangered by the abuse of such enterprise by capital.

	Pretenders To Socialism
		Under a genuine socialist society, there would be NO politcal state, no money or currency of any kind, no seperate social classes and no people forced to work at unsatisfying jobs for a wage which limited their access to society's produce.
		Political parties in the U.S. that advocate Leninism, while referring to it as "socialism", include the Communist Party USA, the Workers World Party and the now defunct Socialist Party (not to be confused with the Socialist Labor Party, which does advocate genuine socialism).
		Socialists believe that a central administrative body, albeit one of an entirely differnt sort then we have under class-ruled societies like capitalism, is necessary for us to continue to enjoy the benefits of industrial production.

	socialism. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
		But the failure of the revolutions of 1848 caused a decline in socialist action in the following two decades, and it was not until the late 1860s that socialism once more emerged as a powerful social force.
		Ferdinand Lassalle, founder of the first workers’ party in Germany (1863), promoted the idea of achieving socialism through state action in individual nations, as opposed to the Marxian emphasis on international revolution.
		In the United States, the ideological issue led to a split in the Socialist Labor party, founded in 1876 under strong German influence, and the formation (1901) of the revisionist Socialist party, which soon became the largest socialist group.

	Sweden
		The Social Democrats, the largest party in Sweden, started their climb back after losing in 1991 to a coalition of non-socialist, bourgeoisie parties led by the Moderates (read conservatives).
		Yes, it might mean some policy modification for the party, but more than anything this style of political communications and electioneering was needed to show the Swedish electorate that this old and established party was in fact dynamic, relevant and a real part of their lives.
		Sweden boasts a good infrastructure for telephone interviewing and focus groups; indeed, the Swedes are premier in the world at counting and measuring themselves, as you'd expect in an affluent, socialist society.

	Sweden votes left, as Left Party moves right, Issue 33
		Sweden's general election set new records: the Christian Democrats and the Left Party (ex-communists) doubled their vote; the Liberals, Centre Party (ex-farmers' party) and Social Democrats (SPD) had their worst results since the 1920s.
		The Left Party had two different election campaigns: one directed to the SPD with the message, 'we are not populist', and one aimed at the market.
		This is due to a combination of factors: the deep crisis and a feeling of helplessness mixed with propaganda that the austerity programmes were temporary; the lack of credible national initiatives and the direct blocking role of the unions; and a growing understanding that successful struggle is harder today than in previous periods.

	Scotland: SSP at the Crossroads
		The SSP is the only left-wing political party that has had some electoral success in recent times.

		This is the old reformist argument of the 1960s, although then it was Sweden and Germany that were used as models.

		A serious socialist party has to be the best fighter for reforms while at the same time explaining that what the capitalists concede with the right hand they will attempt to take away with the left.
		A socialist programme for the economy must call for the ownership of the means to produce wealth to be in the hands of the working class, as well as for increased taxes on the profits of the big corporations and the personal wealth of the fat cats and the millionaires.

	Socialist Appeal - Trotsky and the Struggle Against Fascism
		Though extreme right wing parties as the FPO in Austria are not able at all to organise those sections of society actively, they have been able to attract some electoral support from parts of the working class.
