How did social democrates disagree with socialist revol

Some Russian socialists felt that the Russian peasant tradition of sharing the land according to commune (mir) made them natural socialists. They felt that peasants, rather than workers, would be the main force behind the revolution. They felt that Russia could become socialist more quickly than other countries.

Socialists were active in the countryside through the late nineteenth century. The Socialist Revolutionary Party was formed in 1900. This party demanded that land of the nobles should be transferred to peasants.

Social Democrats did not agree with Socialist Revolutionaries about peasants’ rights. Lenin thought that peasants were not one united group and hence they could all be part of a socialist movement.

Lenin thought that the party should be disciplined and should control the number and quality of its members. Others (Mensheviks) thought that the party should be open to all; as in Germany

Social democracy and democratic socialism are too very different things. They have different origins and originated as parts of different ideological trends.

Democratic socialism, is connected to the socialist movement. For that reason, it also advocates that a revolution should bring the means of production under the control of the proletariat. It appreciates all the Marxist terminology and confirms that there is indeed a proletariat, a capitalist class and that the bourgeoisie must be overthrown in some way.

However, democratic socialism, as opposed to most forms of socialism, believes that if the people and proletariat truly wish to be liberated, they can do so through legitimate democratic means, by voting in a party that represents this revolution.

Social democracy, on the other hand, has developed independently from socialism and Marxism. It shares a lot with that ideological movement of course, but doesn’t really fall under the umbrella term of socialism. It started out in Northern Europe mostly as a worker’s rights movement, but has since become one of the two or three mainstream establishment ideologies in most European countries, along with liberalism and Christian democracy/conservatism.

The key difference between the two here is the degree of acceptance of Marxist theory and the premise that capitalism must necessarily go. While democratic socialism advocates converting a society from capitalism to a communist society through democratic means, social democracy supports maintaing the capitalist framework, and working inside it, using economic and political interventions and government regulations/services to help the working class.
