Under the new liberalism and economic globalization’s dual impact, the democratic socialism gradually get into trouble since the last century seventy’s. In order to reverse the re-election of straight decline, the Socialists took a "neither left nor right" road---the third way. The third way reform has brought a brief revival, soon again to decline. After the third way reform, the Socialist Party gave up the Socialist target and the working class basis. The Socialist Party became the middle class party instead of working class.The European democratic socialist movement is changed into the social democratic movement.The first chapter mainly discusses the historical background of the contemporary social democracy. After the Second World War, the new technology revolution promoted the European capitalist industrial structure change. The first industry and the second industry in the proportion of the national economy dropped ceaselessly. The tertiary industry developed much more rapidly. The change of industrial structure led to social class structure change. Workers and peasants plummeted, while the middle class increased rapidly. New technology revolution has provided the economic globalization of the material basis and the technical support. Since the last century seventy’s, economic globalization has accelerated. In the new technology revolution and economic globalization, the new liberalism emergered and democratic socialism in Europe declined. The last century ninety’s Soviet Union and East Europ revulsion intensified the crisis of democratic socialism.The second chapter discusses the third way’s origin, basic policy view, different modes as well as the essence of the third way. Under the new liberalism and the Sovier Union-East Europ revolution blow, the Socialist Party failed almost all the general elections. In order to get rid of the dilemma, the British Labour Party under the leadership of Blair took to the third way reform as the banner, and won the general election. Thereafter, German Schroder, France Jospin also launched its own version of the third way. The third way’s party policy accentuated the middle class; in economic policy advocates the balance between market and government; in welfare policy advocates have no obligation to have no right, with positive and negative welfare. The third way namely labeled beyond left and right dispute, but in fact it is the inheritance of revisionism, and closed to new liberalism. After the third way reform, the European social democracy was ended. Democratic socialism changed into a bourgeois democratic revolution.The third chapter mainly discusses the current situation of social democracy at the beginning of twenty-first century, and the future. The third way reform advocates have declined. In2007, global economic crisis caused by the American subprime mortgage crisis, the Socialist Party was greatly shocked. The Socialist Party almost lost all the national election and the European Parliament election since the outbreak of the crisis. This indicates that the Socialist Party tends to be right deviation, weakening, and differentiation in the future.The fourth chapter mainly analyzes and discusses the contemporary social democracy lessons and enlightenment to the Chinese Communist Party. In the past one hundred years, the Socialist Party did not peacefully lead capitalism into socialism. Also it was capitalist assimilated. The lesson for the world socialist movement is a very painful. The Communist Party should draw a plurality of intermediate lesson to keep the Marx doctrine workers revolutionary nature. At the same time to, the Communist Party of China should learn from the Socialist Party in nationalization, planning, labor referendum system, social welfare system, and other aspects, insist on and develop the socialist road with Chinese characteristics.
