Social Democratic Party (Romania) (Paperback)

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Social Democratic Party (Romanian: Partidul Social Democrat, PSD) is a major political party of Romania. It can be loosely classified as a center-left party, although the right-left division in Romania is quite blurred. After the 2008 Romanian legislative elections the party entered in coalition with the Democratic Liberal Party (PD-L) and formed a government led by Emil Boc, the president of the PD-L. Previously, from 2005 to 2008, the PSD was an opposition party, after it lost the 2004 legislative election to the now-defunct Justice and Truth Alliance, comprising the National Liberal Party and Democratic Party. The current president of the PSD is Victor Ponta, elected on February 20, 2010.
