Democratic Socialist Left (Italian: Sinistra Socialista Democratica, SSM) is a political party in San Marino, founded as an electoral list for the 2016 general election, including United Left, Progressives and Reformists and Democratic Laboratory. The three parties officially merged into a single party in November 2017.

History

Democratic Socialist Left was founded in November 2016 as an electoral list composed of the United Left, Progressives and Reformists and Democratic Laboratory. Together with Future Republic (a list uniting Popular Alliance and Union for the Republic) and Civic 10 they formed the coalition Adesso.sm.[2]

The coalition won the 2016 general election, defeating the ruling coalition San Marino First (formed by the Sammarinese Christian Democratic Party, the Party of Socialists and Democrats, the Socialist Party and the Sammarinese list), while the SSD list won 14 seats in the Grand and General Council, forming the first non-Christian Democratic government since the Fatti di Rovereta in 1957.

On 10 November 2017 United Left celebrated its last congress, which overwhelmingly passed a motion calling to dissolve the party and turn SSD into a full political party. On 17 November 2017 the first congress of Democratic Socialist Left was celebrated, officially merging the three parties into a single political entity and electing Michele Muratori as party president and Eva Guidi as secretary.[3]

In October 2018 Guidi stepped down as party secretary to join the Sammarinese Government; she was replaced in November by Alessandro Bevitori.[4]
