Social Democracy of the modern day variety in Europe is a collection of nationalist, pro-capitalist parties who loosely exploit ties parties with their names formerly had to the working class movement. Before WWI, Social Democracy was united under the banner of the Second International. Most parties usually espoused either a type of Marxism or a quasi-Marxist cocktail of philosophies, although they participated in practice in Parliaments, governments and supported reform. The International collapsed in 1914 when virtually every party of the Second International gave full-throated support to their own country. After the war Social Democracy, now completely nationalistic, worked to prevent the success of workers revolution, siding and uniting with the capitalist parties and often heading the government. After WWII Social Democracy became a reformist alternative to conservative capitalist parties due to the post-war boom. When the boom stopped by the 1990s Social Democracy became completely right-wing. Parties identified themselves as centrists (or Third Way, coined by Tony Blair), not left at all except in times when slogans were needed in some of the less developed countries. Social Democracy today has become discredited and even traditional working class votes who simplistically supported the parties because of their names have abandoned Social Democracy more and more with the passage of time.
