In Marx, socialism is the phase of government control of the economy, and communism is the phase when the "state withers away". In subsequent usage, socialism was the more generic term, communism referred specifically to revolutionary socialism. By contrast, "socialist" came to refer to those parties that sought to establish socialism through electoral politics. A further distinction developed between "socialists" and "social democrats". Socialists were more hardline about central planning, social democrats were willing to seek the amelioration of inequality through a mixed economy.Strictly, the mainstream of the Socialist parties in Europe have long been "social democratic", but many people are not familiar with the distinction, which may be thought of as the "right wing" of the international socialist movement.....
