No, by definition they aren't. You added the "-ism" incorrectly, you should stop at "social programs".

Must of missed the whole market socialism thing in the Nordics and under Blair in the UK?

[–] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Market socialism examples are Yugoslavia and Poland in the 70's. Nordics have capitalism with (currently being cut) social safety nets, one of prime characteristics of socialdemocracy, ideology that do not promote socialism but capitalism with "human face", as Nomad said, based on Keynes work. Blair and his followers in many countries went much off even that into the neoliberalism.
