Default Re: Optimal level of socialism

You use an exclusivist notion of democracy. There's also an internationalist and inclusivist way of looking at things.

E.g. more and more voices are calling for world minimum norms qua health care and labor conditions, with even a world wide minimum wage. Of course, this discours speaks about "world citizens" and "human rights" as universal concepts.

Socialism has always been democratic and internationalist.
