	Left-wing politics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Many Greens deny that green politics is "on the left"; nonetheless, their economic policies can generally be considered left-wing, and when they have formed political coalitions (most notably in Germany, but also in local governments elsewhere), it has almost always been with groups that would generally be classified as being on the left.
		In politics, left-wing, the political left or simply The Left are terms that refer to the segment of the political spectrum typically associated with any of several strains of socialism or social democracy/Social liberalism.
		The next large anti-war movement that involved the western left was the Vietnam War: It triggered much opposition beyond the ranks of the left and is generally thought of as part of a growing counter-culture movement which took up many different left-wing issues.

	Document Presented by the Left Minorroty (Communist Project) to the National Political Committee of the Party for Communist Re
		The majority of the left of the PRC proposes instead to invite the workers to vote only for one referendum, and that is to vote No to the referendum that wants to introduce the total liberty of dismissal, and to invite abstention on the others.
		Not a "left alternative" as a political-cultural area antagonistic to the search for a frontist position at the side of the old reformist apparatuses.
		But because it would mean continuing to engage the bureaucratic DS apparatus as the strategic interlocutor of a recomposition of the left, and our party as a critical tool of pressure within a reformist and governist horizon.

		Centre, now 5-1 overall and 1-0 in the SCAC, will return to action, Sunday, Dec. 5, when they host Hendrix College, in a SCAC contest.
		Rhodes would trim the lead to five (63-58) with five minutes left in the contest, but a Nestheide three pointer would push the lead back to eight and the Lynx would get no closer than six points the remainder of the game.

	New Centre, Third Way, by Daniel Bensaïd
		A renewed social democracy has to be left of centre, because social justice and emancipatory politics remain at its core.
		From all this derives a bold programme to establish a Third Way which is to be a "radical centre", a new "democratic state without enemies", an active civil society, a "new mixed economy", a new "family democracy", a "civic liberalism" beyond the society of labour, a "cosmopolitan nation".
		The sole perspective of this new radical centre is to look after the profits under the surveillance of the finance markets.

	Al-Ahram Weekly Europe's swing to centre-left
		For the first time, the four most prominent members of the European Union, namely, Germany, France, Britain and Italy, are led by centre-left governments.
		Social-democracy has become the left-wing school that does not reject the principle of market economy while at the same time insisting on vesting it with a 'social dimension' to counterbalance its propensity to deepen class discrepancies, increase unemployment and expose wide sections of the population to critical frustration and discontent.
		All over Europe, it is trends that attribute themselves to a renovated Left, and which Tony Blair has described as advocates of a Third Way, which hold the forefront of the political arena.

	Al-Ahram Weekly International On the ropes
		The left's modest success is attributed to several factors, the most important being the fact that the centre-left's leadership question remains unresolved.
		In that case, smaller parties like the Communists, the Greens and other left- wing forces are likely to enter into talks with the Ulivo to expand the centre-left bloc.
		The country remains evenly split between the centre-right and the centre-left, as shown by the total number of parties on both right and left blocs.

	Guardian Neither Jenkins nor Blair could unite the centre-left
		That Blair was once beguiled by thoughts of a grand historic compromise between the centre and the left is beyond doubt.
		Like Jenkins, Blair speaks of the centre left, or the radical centre.
		But, even more than Jenkins, Blair is consistently more at ease as a centrist than as a centre-leftist.

	SUSAN WATKINS - A WEIGHTLESS HEGEMONY
		In all the major urban centres, the new Middle England that was Thatcher’s dream—non-unionized, service-sector owner-occupiers—has abandoned her party, either voting Labour or staying at home.
		Centre Right alternatives, of which the current Danish regime is the most effective example, often remain a better option.
		A large section of left opinion in Britain, if now repudiating Blair, still clings to the idea that, whatever its record, New Labour remains a lesser evil which must, in the last resort, be defended at the polls.

		The Left wanted the private, joint and government sectors to grow and supported FDI in new sectors where it generated employment, brought in new technology and led to creation of more permanent assets.

	Opinion & Analysis
		So, one (Abhijit Sen) became an out and out Left economist, and the other describes himself as centre by centre Left, which, he says basically means that when thinking of an issue, what occupies the front of his mind is people at large and consumers.
		A story one hears about Pronab Sen is that he and his brother Abhijit Sen were sent to different schools because their father, noted economist and civil servant, Samar Ranjan Sen, wanted them to imbibe different schools of thought.
		That is precisely what pharma companies claim he did when formulating recommendations as head of the task force to explore various options other than price control for achieving the objective of making available life saving drugs at reasonable prices.

	4th Company, Foot Guards
		The left centre file faces to the left, and the remaining files of the left wing run up, and form on the left of it.
		All the other sub-divisions march obliquely to the left, and when the leading files are arrived upon their ground, the officers commanding subdivisions order their respective divisions to form, and dress by the right.
		It should be remembered that when the battalion forms to the front and right, the left wing forms to the front, and the right wing to the right: if to the front and left, the right wing forms to the front, and the left wing to the left.

		A short while later down the other end a dangerous cross in from the left's left seemed to be covered by the heroic Telboy, and he called accordingly.
		Finally, the left broke down their right, and the right's left crumbled.

	Centre-Left Parties to Win Swedish Election
		With almost all votes counted, the Social Democrats and Left Party had 48.4 percent of the vote or 174 seats in the 349-seat single-chamber parliament, the Greens 4.6 percent or 17 seats, and the four center-right parties 43.8 percent or 158 seats.
		Parties on the left argued against immigration for jobs, saying it could undermine collective wage agreements and work should be found first for those currently unemployed in Sweden.
		As vote-counting pointed to a clear victory for the Social Democrats and their ex-communist Left Party and environmentalist Green allies, Persson promised to govern with the powerful trade unions in pursuit of greater equality in Swedish society.

	New Research Says Daughters Turn Parents to Left of Centre Parties
		Left of centre was measured by using individuals' support for the Labour Party or Liberal Democrat Party, and the researchers measured right of centre by counting those who expressed support for the Conservative Party.
		Even after factoring out other characteristics, such as parents' income, education and age, the researchers found that having a daughter was likely to turn political allegiance from right to left of centre parties.
		New research by economists Professor Andrew Oswald at the University of Warwick, and Dr Nattavudh Powdthavee at London University's Institute of Education, reveals that the more daughters a family has the more likely the parents are to vote for left of centre parties.

		Entitled 'Far-Right Rise on Back of Weak Left' the author as well as providing an analysis as to why the threat from a revitalized fascism is continuing to grow, also and as importantly foregrounds the basic political strategy required to counter it.
		But instead of adjusting to this objective reality, the left is widely regarded, and happy to be seen as an 'extension' of the same failed 'liberal political consensus'.
		Understandably the conclusion it draws from the comparison is that 'where the left has shown itself to be dynamic, responsive to local communities and competent it is winning support'.

		The Centre Party, which is predominately a party advocating devolution as it received its core support from the rural regions, managed to maintain its share of the vote, but the Socialist Left lost over a third of its seats.
		Despite the Labour party's success, both the Socialist Left and the Centre Party have stated their intent to fight their corner and there is still the potential for some major splits within the government in the near future.
		the Socialist Left and the Centre Party will take a number of cabinet positions in the new government, yesterday's result was first and foremost a victory for their Labour allies, and in some ways leave the two parties in a weaker position.

	Just Left: The Winning Government
		The 80s and 90s moved the centre of NZ politics so far to the right that it is necessary for a centre-left government to keep up a balanced pressure to move the centre back towards the left.
		The whole point of dominating the middle ground from the left for nine years is surely to try and shift the middle to the left, in the way the new right shifted it to the right in the 80's and 90's.
		Clark has got her eye on the centre, and by signing up agreements with United Future and NZ First, she has ensured that whenever the next election comes, they will have a pre-existing relationship with Labour - and so the centre of politics is thereby associated with Labour, not with National.
