Mainstream social democrats have struggled to hold this own since
the global financial crisis. Some established parties have been
swept off the political stage while others have seen catastrophic
falls in their vote shares. Writing from a distinctively British
perspective, David Coats looks to pinpoint the reasons for this
decline and offer an optimistic outlook, arguing that social
democracy still represents the best hope for affluent societies to
secure the values of the Enlightenment. He also makes the case that
the Labour party is most successful when it is open pluralist and
disengaged from arid internal wrangling. Rather than offering a
comprehensive policy agenda, the author calls for a discussion
engaging all legitimate strains in the social democratic tradition,
outlining a series of questions that Labour must answer if it is to
secure a general election victory.
