Berlin's Brandt seen as pivot in European socialism
Eric Sevareid argues Berlin mayor Willy Brandt could shape the European left toward two-party democracy modeled on the American system. He credits Brandt with transforming socialist thinking, breaking with Marxism, and guiding the German and British lefts toward a postwar political realism. Sevareid warns of the costs of abandoning illusions about class struggle and the Soviet Union while noting two major shifts eroding European socialism’s old ideology. He cites aggressive Soviet nationalism and a science-driven era as central changes, contrasting socialist currents in Britain and Germany with U S and Soviet dynamics.
