Social Democracy

Not to be confused with democratic socialism.

Social Democracy is a form of capitalism where the bourgeoisie has granted significant material concessions to the working class, mostly as a means of staving off a proletarian revolution where a new state will be constructed. Stalin defined it as "...the moderate wing of fascism".

Rajani Palme Dutt's book Fascism and Social Revolution (1934) demonstrates how the Social Democrats in Europe led to the rise of fascism.
