NetworkDem
NetworkDem (ReteDem) is a social-democratic faction within the Democratic Party (PD), a political party in Italy.
The faction was launched in July 2015 by a group of social democrats, who had supported Giuseppe Civati in the 2013 leadership election (in the event, he came third with 14.2% of the vote), but disagreed with his decision to leave the PD in May 2015. They notably included , , , and Sandra Zampa.[1][2] However, most former Civatiani joined Civati's Possible (Luca Pastorino, Elly Schlein, , etc.) or decided to stay in the PD without joining any faction (Felice Casson, , etc.), or joined the Italian Left (Corradino Mineo). Some left the PD in 2017 through Article One.
In the run-up of the 2017 leadership election NetworkDem endorsed Andrea Orlando of Remake Italy for party leader.[3]
