Succs died in the 70s lol, and it's because the world became more multipolar and that hurt economic growth. Social democracy was able to thrive because of imperialism.
Back where? In Europe they ate shit. In Latin America yeah, they came back for a while. The big succ governments (Olof Palme, Mitterrand, Papandreou etc) came to be around the late 70s and early 80s. Then the USSR fell and the climate completely changed in favor of neoliberalism.
Spain also mostly succumbed to neoliberalism years ago. So basically just Latin America, where a lot of these leaders were much more radical than what is considered a succ in Europe.

Maybe in the anglo sphere, they were very prominent in Europe. In some countries they weren't as prominent UNTIL the 70s.
Its really the case that by 75 it was in decline everywhere. If anything it came back in the 90s with the pink tide.

Latin America, also Spain became progressively more left since the fall of Franco.
