Introduction:

This essay is divided into two parts. Part 1, which examines the historiography of Debsian socialism and the Socialist Party of America (SPA) from a broad perspective, appeared in the April 2022 issue of Choice. What follows is part 2, which focuses more narrowly on the SPA’s activities in specific cities, states, and regions; its relationship to particular civil-social constituencies; and its significance in the lives of intellectuals, organizers, and officeholders who once championed the Party’s politics.
