Sosialisme demokratis

Sosialisme demokratik adalah jenis sosialisme yang menolak metode transisi tersentralisasi, elitis, atau otoriter dari kapitalisme ke sosialisme yang mendukung pergerakan grassroot dengan tujuan segera menciptakan demokrasi ekonomi yang terdesentralisasi.

Istilah ini sering dipakai para sosialis yang memilih transisi ke sosialisme melalui pemilu atau revolusi massal yang spontan dari bawah untuk membedakan dirinya dari para sosialis otoriter yang menuntut dibentuknya negara satu partai. Paham ini dikenal bertentangan dengan paham Marxis-Leninis dan Maois.

Penganut sosialis demokratik mendorong sistem ekonomi sosialis pasca-kapitalis sebagai alternatif bagi kapitalisme. Sejumlah sosialis demokratik menyuarakan sosialisme pasar berbasis manajemen diri pekerja, sementara yang lainnya mendukung sistem non-pasar berbasis perencanaan partisipasi yang desentral. Banyak sosialis demokratik kontemporer menolak perencanaan tersentral sebagai dasar sosialisme demokratik.^[1]
