(Lassalle was a social democrat, the socialism page is weird to put someone with specific ideas and beliefs on rather than general ideologies and statements. Same as the progressive, conservative and capitalist pages.)

Historically, Social Democracy was used interchangeably with [[File:Demsocstar.png]] [[Democratic Socialism]], which is still rather common in the [[File:Cball-US.png]] United States, especially since [[File:Sanders.png]] [[Left-Wing Populism|Bernie Sanders']] rise in popularity. After World War 2, Social Democracy becomes its own identity and promoted a strong welfare state under a [[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism|capitalist]] economy. Social Democracies have been established in Europe and other types of the world as follows: [[File:Cball-India.png]] India since the establishment of the DPSP, the [[File:Cball-France.png]] Republic of France during the 1930's before [[File:Nazi.png]] [[Nazism|German Occupation]], [[File:Cball-Australia.png]] Australia ever since WWII, [[File:Cball-SriLanka.png]] Sri Lanka since the early 1940's, [[File:Cball-France.png]] the French Republic after the fall of Nazi France, [[File:Nordmodel.png]] [[Nordic Model|Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, and Iceland.]]

==== '''Lassalleism''' ====
W.I.P
===== State =====
In contrast with Marx and his adherents, Lassalle rejected the idea that the state was a class-based power structure with the function of preserving existing class relations and destined to wither away in a future classless society. Instead, Lassalle considered the state as an independent entity, an instrument of justice essential for the achievement of the socialist program.

===== Iron law of wages =====
Lassalle accepted the idea first posited by the classical economist David Ricardo that wage rates in the long term tended towards the minimum level necessary to sustain the life of the worker and to provide for his reproduction. In accord with the law of rent, Lassalle coined his own iron law of wages. Lassalle argued that individual measures of self-help by wage workers were destined to failure and that only producers' cooperatives established with the financial aid of the state would make economic improvement of the workers' lives possible. From this, it followed that the political action of the workers to capture the power of the state was paramount and the organization of trade unions to struggle for ephemeral wage improvements is more or less a diversion from the primary struggle.

===== Philosophy =====
Lassalle considered Johann Gottlieb Fichte as "one of the mightiest thinkers of all peoples and ages", praising Fichte's Addresses to the German Nation in a May 1862 speech as "one of the mightiest monuments of fame which our people possesses, and which, in depth and power, far surpass everything of this sort which has been handed down to us from the literature of all time and peoples".
