The Social Democratic Party of Serbia (Serbian: Социјалдемократска партија Србије, romanized: Socijaldemokratska partija Srbije, abbr. SDPS) is a centre-left political party in Serbia. Orientated towards the principles of social democracy, it has been led by Rasim Ljajić since its formation in 2009.

History

[edit]

The Social Democratic Party of Serbia (SDPS) was formed on 5 October 2009 by Rasim Ljajić, the long-time leader of Sandžak Democratic Party.[1] Ljajić has been the president of SDPS since its formation.[1] In late 2013 SDPS had joined in coalition with the Sandžak Democratic Party, forming a political union. Rasim Ljajić was elected as the SDPS-SDP's first head.[2] Despite taking part with the Democratic Party-led Choice for a Better Life alliance in the 2012 Serbian parliamentary election, SDPS has aligned itself with the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) after the election.[1] Since then, it has contested every election on the SNS electoral list.[1]

Ideology and platform

[edit]

SDPS is a centre-left political party, orientated towards the principles of social democracy.[3][4][5] Ljajić has described SDPS as an anti-fascist, anti-populist, and solidarist party in 2023.[6]

Organisation

[edit]

Its headquarters is at Dečanska 1/III in Belgrade.[7] In 2015, it was reported that SDPS had 44,658 members.[8] In 2020, SDPS had 48,623 members.[9]

International cooperation

[edit]

In June 2018 the party was admitted in the Socialist International as observer member.[10]
