Theirs is what is called welfare state capitalism. Social Democracy became less explicitly Marxist in the 50s and 60s. Then moved more right-ward later. Still far from US style capitalism and not far from what Bernie is advocating now. He's not a Soviet style command economy advocate, after all, or even a nationalize the major means of production advocate. He's a welfare statist. Some argue he's not even a genuine socialist of any kind. Even in the modern social democrat sense.
