Democratic Youth League Of Finland
The Left Youth (''Vasemmistonuoret'' in Finnish, ''Vänsterunga'' in Swedish) is a political youth organization in Finland. It is considered the youth wing of the Left Alliance, but it is not officially affiliated with the party - members of the Left Youth are not automatically members of the Left Alliance. The organization was founded in 1944. Until 1998, it was known as the Finnish Democratic Youth League (SDNL, ''Suomen demokraattinen nuorisoliitto'') and until 1990 it served as the youth organization of the now-defunct Finnish People's Democratic League (SKDL). SDNL was a founding member of World Federation of Democratic Youth, but its main international frame used to be the European Network of Democratic Young Left until its dissolution.https://de-de.facebook.com/Endyl-European-Network-of-Democratic-Young-Left-143775598983791/ post of March 22nd 2016 Chairpersons * Liban Sheikh 2020– * Hanna-Marilla Zidan 2017-2019 * Anni Ahlakorpi 2015-2017 * Li Andersson ...

Democratic socialists argue that capitalism is inherently incompatible with the values of freedom, equality, and solidarity and that these ideals can only be achieved through the realisation of a socialist society. Although most democratic socialists seek a gradual transition to socialism, democratic socialism can support revolutionary or reformist politics to establish socialism. ''Democratic socialism'' was popularised by socialists who opposed the backsliding towards a one-party state in the Soviet Union and other nations during the 20th century. The history of democratic socialism can be traced back to 19th-century socialist thinkers a ...
