Democratic Marxism is a term employed to emphasise the compatibility between democracy and Marxism.^{[citation needed]} According to Kenneth Megill in his book The New Democratic Theory:^[1]

Democratic Marxism is authentic Marxism—the Marxism which emphasizes the necessity for revolutionary action. Loyalty to the movement, not loyalty to any particular doctrine, is characteristic of the orthodox democratic Marxist.^[2]

In his book Chile's Democratic Road to Socialism, Michael H. Fleet also uses the term democratic Marxism to describe the nature of the Chilean government at the time of Salvador Allende's :

During at least two of the three years of democratic Marxist government, however, Chile faced severe economic and political crises.^{[3][when defined as?]}
