Gradualism
Philosophy of step-by-step proceeding / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gradualism, from the Latin gradus ("step"), is a hypothesis, a theory or a tenet assuming that change comes about gradually or that variation is gradual in nature and happens over time as opposed to in large steps.[1] Uniformitarianism, incrementalism, and reformism are similar concepts. For the Social democratics, the socialist society is achieved through gradualism.
