Social Georgism is an economically centre-left, culturally left ideology combining the Georgist idea of a land value tax, as the primary source of public revenue, with the desire for a sustainable and highly developed welfare state.

Social Georgism is in essence a variant of Georgism which broadly covers most of the left wing of said movement, though primarily centre-left, closely linked to Social Democracy, and oftentimes inspired by the Nordic Model. Any Georgists considering themselves left wing could potentially add the "Social" prefix, even though some of the rather specific ones have their own more or less fleshed out definitions, namely Geomutualism and Geosyndicalism.

Georgism itself could be considered quite "social", however, the movement has always had a divide between strongly libertarian types and more statist labour activists. Social Georgism would tend to attract the latter kind; generally, though not always, people favouring welfare provided by the state rather than a citizen's dividend.

Very early on, Social Georgism got a child with Civic Nationalism in China, called Tridemism, and they in turn almost succeeded in realising their shared ideals before they were thwarted by Maoism.


Personality

SocGeo often attempts to compromise between different ideas, trying to reason with both left and right in an attempt to defend and advocate for the idea of a mixed economy while socializing the land values, to strengthen both the society, free enterprise, and the return to labor.

They are also strongly opposed to privatisation of vital public infrastructure and unregulated exploitation of natural resources.

Depending what mood Social Georgism is in, she can draw varying degrees of inspiration from her grandparent Socialism and their other relatives on that side of the family.
