Old Left Versus New Left in Latin America

Why Syriza Will Blink

WASHINGTON, DC Opinion polls in the run up to Greece s early general election on January 25 indicate that the left wing Syriza party is likely to win the largest share of votes. As a result, Syriza stands to earn a crucial premium under Greek electoral law, according to which the party that gains the most votes is allocated an extra 50 of the parliament s 300 seats.

And then there has been the creation of something akin to a political fifth column across Europe. The continent's Euroskeptic political parties, on both the left and the right, are holding up Putin's authoritarian nationalism as a model for the type of illiberal regime they would seek to establish should the EU dissolve.

PRINCETON Greece's new government, led by the anti austerity Syriza party, presents the eurozone with a challenge that it has not yet had to face dealing with national officials who are outside the traditional European mainstream. Syriza is in many ways a radical party, and its views on economic policy are often described as hard left but the party's take on debt and austerity is supported by many perfectly mainstream economists in Europe and America.

Left flank, march!

The European Parliament election, by contrast, was an exercise in disruption. Support for far right and far left parties was based on citizens frustrations with Europe s flaws, rather than on any realistic, thoughtful agenda.

The same problems led to the collapse of the previous government (a left wing coalition led by current EU Commission President Romano Prodi), and they would certainly continue under a new government if a left wing coalition was voted into office at the next election.

In France, for example, many supporters of the National Front voted communist 30 years ago. And, indeed, the National Front s economic program is rather similar to that of the Left Front (an electoral bloc comprising the French Communist Party and the Left Party).

This is certainly true in Latin America, where a wave of leftist populism has swept many countries. Several Europe countries, too, have revealed a less dramatic left right split, with Spain and Italy though not Poland and the Czech Republic moving somewhat to the left.

This emphasis on planning was one reason why the European project always appealed to the left and not only in France. The technocratic belief in ideal models is inherently utopian.

Taksim and the Left

Populist anti euro parties of the right and the left are challenging Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi. And Marine Le Pen of the far right National Front is polling well ahead of the 2017 French presidential election.

Africa receives nearly 40 per cent of all United Nations system resources, Asia and the Pacific 22 per cent, Latin America 22 per cent, Europe 6.6 per cent, and West Asia 6 per cent.

That is the case of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, the European Union, the Council of Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States.

In this environment, the full economic, banking, fiscal, and political union that a stable monetary union eventually requires is not viable The eurozone core opposes more risk sharing, solidarity, and faster integration. And populist parties of the right and left anti EU, anti euro, anti migrant, anti trade, and anti market are becoming stronger throughout Europe.

Yet the EU establishment seems bent on pursuing business as usual. In the parliament, a vocal but fragmented minority of critics, cranks, and bigots is likely to push the center right and center left groups, which still have a combined majority, to club together even more closely.

And while the political right may moralize sex much more, the political left is really doing a lot of it with food.

She's an activist from the Right, and I'm an activist from the Left.

In Israel, both right and left are united in this quest.

Like leftists everywhere, the French left favors a large degree of state control of the economy, together with technocratic rather than liberal solutions to social and economic problems. This type of thinking has played a vital role in the development of European institutions.
