Historically, the SDP is one of Taiwan's "Third Force" (第三勢力) parties, a collection of parties that do not self-claim to either the Pan-Green or Pan-Blue Coalitions and tend to be rooted in social movements.[5][6] Currently, the SDP has become part of Pan-Green, with more Taiwanese nationalist positions accepted and working with the Democratic Progressive Party.[1]
