The Socialist International (SI) is a political international or worldwide organisation of political parties which seek to establish democratic socialism,[1] consisting mostly of social democratic political parties and labour organisations.
Although formed in 1951 as a successor to the Labour and Socialist International, it has antecedents in the late 19th century. The organisation currently includes 132 member parties[3] and organisations from over 100 countries. Its members have governed in many countries, including most of Europe. In 2013, a schism in the SI led to the establishment of the Progressive Alliance.[4]
The current secretary general of the SI is Benedicta Lasi of Ghana, the current president is the prime minister of Spain, Pedro Sánchez, and the current vice-president is Temirlan Sultanbekov of Kyrgyzstan,[5] all of whom were elected at the last SI Congress held in Madrid, Spain, in November 2022.
