Challenges to Democracy in the 21st Century3-030-46238-2 Chapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: A reflection on classes; a reflection on parties -- Chapter 3: Were social democratic parties really more working-class in the past? -- Chapter 4: The class basis of social democracy at the beginning of the twenty-first century -- Chapter 5: Parties' changing political projects and workers' political attitudes -- Chapter 6: Renewing social democracy by re-mobilising the working class.This open access book carefully explores the relationship between social democracy and its working-class electorate in Western Europe. Relying on different indicators, it demonstrates an important transformation in the class basis of social democracy. At the beginning of the twenty-first century, the working-class vote is strongly fragmented and social democratic parties face competition on multiple fronts for their core electorate – and not only from radical right parties. Starting from a reflection on ‘working-class parties’ and using a sophisticated class schema, the book paints a nuanced and diversified picture of the trajectory of social democracy that goes beyond a simple shift from working-class to middle-class parties. Following a detailed description, the book reviews possible explanations of workers' new voting patterns and emphasizes the crucial changes in parties' ideologies. It closes with a discussion on the role of the working class in social democracy's future electoral strategies.
