Preferred term

democratic socialism  

Definition

  • Democratic socialism is a term meant to distinguish a form of socialism that falls somewhere between authoritarian and centralized forms of socialism on the one hand and social democracy on the other. The rise of authoritarian socialism in the twentieth century in the Soviet Union and its sphere of influence generated this new distinction. [Source: The Encyclopedia of Political Science; Democratic Socialism]
