Italian Democratic Socialists (SDI - Socialisti Democratici Italiani)


by Marcus Schmöger, 20 July 2002

For the SDI (Socialisti Democratici Italiani = Italian Democratic Socialists) I only have found the logo, but no flag.
Marcus Schmöger, 20 July 2002

SDI ("Socialisti Democratici Italiani" = Italian Democratic Socialists <www.socialisti.org>) - The SDI is the more left-wing fraction of the former PSI (Partito Socialista Italiano); for the more right-wing part refer to the NPSI. Under the leadership of Enrico Boselli it formed part of the Ulivo coalition in 1996 (in a subcoalition together with "Rinnovamento Italiano") and 2001 (in the "Girasole" subcoalition together with the Verdi). The nine deputies in the Camera dei Deputati and the six senators are part of the respective mixed group ("Misto"). The logo shows the symbol of the SPE (Socialist Party of Europe), the rose with twelve stars in a circle, as the main symbol (see also logo and flag of the "Democratici di Sinistra"). I have not found any evidence for a flag of the SDI, but presumably they have one, as most Italian parties, especially those with socialist roots, have flags.
FGS ("Federazione Giovani Socialisti"= Federation Young Socialists <www.giovanisocialisti.it>) is the youth organization of the SDI, that has its own symbols. The logo can be found at <www.giovanisocialisti.it/simbolo.jpg>. The multi-coloured rose of the logo is also the main feature of the flag of the FGS. However, there are also several inscriptions, not all of which I could figure out on the (not very clear and sharp) fotos.
Fotos of the flag can be found at <www.giovanisocialisti.it/I
