Responding to the new economic and political currents in European life, the meore dasi members, such as Tsereteli, Niko Nikoladze, and Sergei Meskhi, were more radical than their predecessors in engaging in journalism, urban politics, and business, and according to historian Ronald Grigor Suny they were "the first group of Georgian intellectuals to become involved primarily in the urban and economic life in Georgia. They were supplanted by the Mesame Dasi (მესამე დასი, "Third Group"), which was composed mainly of Georgian ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Social Democrats
Social democracy is a political, social, and economic philosophy within socialism that supports political and economic democracy. As a policy regime, it is described by academics as advocating economic and social interventions to promote social justice within the framework of a liberal-democratic polity and a capitalist-oriented mixed economy. The protocols and norms used to accomplish this involve a commitment to representative and participatory democracy, measures for income redistribution, regulation of the economy in the general interest, and social welfare provisions. Due to longstanding governance by social democratic parties during the post-war consensus and their influence on socioeconomic policy in Northern and Western Europe, social democracy became associated with Keynesianism, the Nordic model, the social-liberal paradigm, and welfare states within political circles in the late 20th century. It has been described as the most common form of Western or modern ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
