It is normal that social democratic parties are shifting to the left

There has been a pronounced shift to the left in the policy platforms of social democratic parties in three large OECD countries in the recent period: the United States, the United Kingdom and Germany. This leftward shift is understandable in light of: Conservative parties’ reluctance to engage with the climate question; The skewing of income distribution against wage earners (United States), inequalities (all three countries) and poverty (all three); The rising number of precarious self-employed workers (United Kingdom); Weak social welfare (United States, United Kingdom); Weak public investment (United Kingdom, Germany).
