A Political Scientist at the University of Ghana, Mr Kwesi Jonah, has said there is not much difference between liberal and social democrats in the African political setting.
Speaking in an interview with Joy News, Mr Jonah said even though there are some cardinal differences between the two systems, developing countries are not entirely independent in deciding the approaches to their economies.
He maintains that these economic programmes are handed down from Bretton Woods' institutions and thus erode the impact of the political ideology of governments on their countries.
Mr. Jonah's comments come in the wake of the ongoing conference organized by the Socialist International, the global organization made up of parties that believe in the social democratic ideology.
