| | Democratic Socialism |
 | | Leninists argued that there was no possibility of a "democratic" road to socialism because the state inevitably served as an instrument of capitalist domination. | | | To preserve the legitimacy of democratic government (and, in the long run, democratic capitalism itself), the state must respond to popular mobilization. | | | The gray drabness of state collectivism has little to do with the multi-colored pluralism of democratic socialism. |

| | Socialism is not in desperate retreat, as falsely proclaimed by the establishment press, our state university professors and our "all is well" don't-rock-the-boat political machines. | | | The result from Sunday's election effectively killed plans by the minority government and its parliamentary ally, the Civic Democrats (ODS), to slash the powers of President Vaclav Havel through constitutional reform……The outcome boosted the Quad-Coalition's faction in the Senate and stripped the Social Democrats and the ODS of their majority in the 81-seat house. | | | Socialism is not in desperate retreat, as falsely proclaimed by the establishment press, our state university professors, and our "all is well" don't-rock-the-boat political machines - on the contrary it moves forward confidently, aggressively, and for the most part, uncontestedly, everywhere in the world….." |
