	Social Democrats by Nima Sanandaji
		The Swedish Social Democratic party is in a sense unique in the West.
		In a study of the political attitude among the members of the boards of Swedish universities it was shown that over 60 percent had outspoken support of the Social Democrats and 75 percent had connections to the party.
		The party secretary of the Social Democrats has gone as far as claiming that Swedish corporations have gone together in a conspiracy to reduce investments so that the economic situation is bad during the election year, threatening the Social Democratic parties’ chances to cling to power.

	Decline of Democratic Pluralism Korten
		Sweden's modern success was a creation of the Swedish Social Democratic Party, which melded and sustained a national consensus that kept it in power for forty-four years, from 1932 to 1976.5 The Social Democrats built Sweden's elaborate social welfare system.
		When the Social Democrats returned to power in 1982, they were a chastened party intent on promoting policies that would allow Sweden's industrialists sufficient profit margins on domestic investment to keep them "believing in Sweden," a phrase coined by P. Gyllenhammar, the chairman of Volvo.
		Democratic pluralism melds the forces of the market, government, and civil society to maintain a dynamic balance among the often competing societal needs for essential order and equity, the efficient production of goods and services, the accountability of power, the protection of human freedom, and continuing institutional innovation.

		These barriers between people demonstrate that the fundamental ideas of Social Democracy on freedom, justice and solidarity live on and are still needed in the 21st century.
		Social Democracy has an unquestionable role to play as long as the smallest grain of injustice exists and as long as security and real freedom are not enjoyed by all.
		The task facing Social Democracy now - in the 21 century - is to tackle the problems of today and the challenges of tomorrow on the basis of the foundational ideas.

	The party program of 1897 by Swedish Social-Democracy
		The party should thus be a class party, which also meant, it should be a mass party, a democratic people’s movement.
		According to the Leninist party theory should a socialist party be an elite party, consisting of the small number of working class people which through their higher consciousness could be the avant-garde of the working class.
		The social democracy therefore wants to enforce also the political organisation of the working class, take possession of the public power and gradually transform to common property all means of production — the means of transportation, the forests, the mines, the mills, the machines, the factories, the earth.

		The Swedish Social Democratic party showing the way with its political struggle and victory with the comprehensive ATP-reform in 1957, Norway and Finland was to follow in early 1960s.
		The explanations for the Danish Sonderweg are the relative weakness of the Danish Social Democracy, conflicting interest in the labour movement, and institutional bindings from prior pension legislation.
		Through the investigation of the different proposals for a supplementary pension scheme with some relation to prior income it is possible to argue that social democratic pension politics is not determined by an objective class interest (as often argued in comparative welfare state studies), but is formed (interpreted) by internally conflicting interest.

	Political Foundations (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Party foundations typically conduct courses to educate party members or sympathisers in political work; they are sometimes responsible for policy research, for maintaining the parent party's archives, and for assistance to sister parties in foreign countries.
		Since party foundations generally receive the bulk of their funds from the public purse, opinions about their merits vary according to each commentator's judgement of the merits of state funding of political parties.
		Since the German Stiftungen are, technically, independent of their parent parties, they are in a position to receive public funds which (for various constitutional reasons) cannot be given by the state to the parties themselves.

	Anti-capitalist Critique of ’’Social Democratic’’ Party Politics : Indybay
		Implicit is the attempt to identify ‘’Social Democratic Party’’ with ‘’Welfare Model’’; while in reality the Social Democrats have long ago abandoned their original commitment to the ‘’Peoples Home’’ democratic socialism they preached in the 1970’s.
		It was the Social Democratic Party that dismantled the core Welfare State policies in the 1980’s and 1990’s under the rubric of ‘modernisation’.
		The politics of neo-liberalism with a ‘’social’’ face that the Social Democratic Party implements undermine social security and social cohesion at the expense of workers who are forced to accept wage freezes and benefit cuts in order to maintain private sector profitability and competitiveness.

		There were members who were about to break from the Social Democracy and an important discussion centered on whether we should leave the party or stay and build an opposition to the right-wing course of the leadership.
		This coincided with a clear turn to the right within the party before it regained government power in 1982, and was spear-headed by the new Minister of Finance, Kjell-Olof Feldt, and his close collaborators.
		We maintained a political orientation towards the Social Democratic Party as we still thought a new radicalisation and new waves of workers’ struggle would lead to a new fight within the social democracy where a new left would appear.
