Today, parties descended from the Second International hold office throughout the European Union, while the Right appears widely disorientated by the dramatic \"modernisation\" of a political tradition dating back to the nineteenth century. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe focal point of Gerassimos Moschonas's study is the emergent \"new social democracy\" of the twenty-first century. As Moschonas demonstrates, change has been a constant of social-democratic history: the core dominant reformist tendency of working-class politic notwithstanding, capitalism has transformed social democracy more than it has succeeded in transforming capitalism. Now, in the \"great transformation\" of recent years, a process of \"de-social-democratization\" has been set in train, affecting every aspect of the social-democratic phenomenon, from ideology and programs to organization and electorates. Analytically incisive and empirically meticulous, \u003ci\u003eIn the Name of Social Democracy\u003c\/i\u003e will establish itself as the standard reference work on the logic and dynamics of a major mutation in European politics.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGerassimos Moschonas\u003c\/b\u003e is Assistant Professor in Comparative Politics in the Department of Political Science and History at Panteion University, Athens. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eGregory Elliott\u003c\/b\u003e is a member of the editorial collective of Radical Philosophy and author of \u003ci\u003eAlthusser: The Detour of Theory\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eLabourism and the English Genius: The Strange Decay of Labour England?\u003c\/i\u003e.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 386\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.09 x 9.16 x 6.16 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 19, 2010\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45861418205381,"sku":"9781859843468","price":28.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/d3V4UTRCRDZsTDRuc3YwS2xSaFRndz09_8edd69e2-53ec-45c3-8bb7-256417cfc6b3.webp?v=1771552259","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/in-the-name-of-social-democracy-the-great-transformation-1945-to-the-present-paperback-2","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
