Social Democracy is on the back-foot, and increasingly centre-left
political parties are struggling to win office. Bringing together a
range of leading academics and experts on social democratic
politics and policy, Why the left loses offers an international,
comparative view of the changing political landscape, examining the
degree to which the centre-left project is exhausted and is able to
renew its message in a neo-liberal age. Using case studies from the
UK, Germany, Spain, France, Australia and New Zealand contributors
argue that despite different local and specific contexts, the
mainstream centre-left is beset by a range of common challenges.
Analysis focuses on institutional and structural factors, the role
of key individuals, especially party leaders, and the atrophy of
progressive ideas in explaining why the centre-left is currently in
retreat. Why the Left Loses is aimed at stimulating wider debate
about the fortunes of the centre-left.
