The result was a severe punishment in 2011, after an agonizing end to his term. Even in the opposition, the PSOE continued to decline, due to the internal leadership crisis, to its worst records since the recovery of democracy, 22% in 2015 and 2016. In 2019 it regained control of the government, but, for the first time Since the reestablishment of democracy, he had to come to terms with the critical left. In the Nordic strongholds , after a gentler but constant decline, social democracy was able to return to government at the end of the decade (except in Iceland), but in Sweden and Finland they have not been able to maintain their predominant position, after the 2022 elections. Of the other countries, three cases of very marked socialist regression deserve to be highlighted.
First of all, Greece . Corruption and personal scandals punished the socialist leader, Andreas Papandreou, but not so much his party, PASOK, which remained in government well into the century. When at the end of the following Phone Number Database decade the son of the colonels' post-dictatorship leader placed the party back in power, the financial crisis broke out in the country. Georgios Papandreou could not see any other way out than to comply with the demands of austerity. This time, the game was virtually finished. PASOK lost 30 points between 2009 and 2012. Abstention, keys and effects in the elections in Europe In two countries with a strong socialist tradition such as Austria and the Netherlands , the decline has also been notable. The fall in the first presents a softer but almost constant image, while in the second the collapse from 2012 to 2017 presents similarities with the French case.
In the former communist countries of central and eastern Europe there have been ups and downs. In Poland, the excellent result of the Social Democrats in 2001 did not give them flight for more than one term. Since then they have not even been an alternative to the right-wing and far-right governments. Only Romania has a socialist government, although in a grand coalition with the liberal-conservatives of the PNL. In the other countries, there have been ups and downs, but the trend, in the end, has been depressive. In the former Yugoslav republics of Croatia and Slovenia, the new social democratic parties that emerged from Tito's self-managed system have also not played a relevant role. They had a boom at the end of the first decade of the century, which turned out to be short-lived. The Croats led a governing coalition for one term starting in 2001 and the Slovenes have remained junior partners on the liberal lists.
