Norway’s parliamentary election on Monday, September 8, 2025, was an incredibly close-run race. The left bloc, led by the Labour Party, secured a narrow victory. Labour will likely continue as a single-party minority government, seeking compromises and budget agreements with other left-wing parties as well as across the political spectrum. Much remains uncertain, however, as negotiations with as many as four smaller left-wing parties are still ongoing before a new government can be formally established.
The Race for the ...

With general elections only months away, the Left in the Netherlands is stuck in a rut. As the year progresses, political signs are mounting that, 2025 could mark the beginning of a new left-wing momentum, similar to that seen a decade ago. In 2015, a surge of left-wing enthusiasm swept across the West with the election of the Syriza government in Greece, the rise of Podemos in Spain, Jeremy Corbyn’s leadership of the UK Labour Party, and Bernie Sanders launching his unexpectedly strong campaign for the 2016 US presidential primaries. The wave may be smaller...

Belgian Workers’ Party MEP Marc Botenga on how Europe’s inaction on Gaza amounts to legal and moral complicity. In the nearly two years since Israel’s assault on Gaza began, at least initially in response to the Hamas attack on 7 October, over 60,000 Palestinians have been killed. Entire cities lie in ruins, starvation is widespread, and a growing chorus of international legal experts warn of a looming genocide. Despite this, the European Union continues its preferential trade and research partnership with Israel under the EU–Israel ...

Pelle Dragsted of Denmark's Red-Green Alliance in conversation about his new book, Nordic Socialism. In recent years, renewed interest in socialism has grown across Europe and beyond — often sparked by mounting inequality, climate breakdown, and the failures of neoliberal governance. But what does socialism look like when it already exists in everyday institutions? Pelle Dragsted, a member of the Danish Folketing for the Red-Green Alliance, believes the answer lies in the Nordic model — and in recognizing the democratic...

Barely a decade ago, the far-right Dansk Folkeparti (“Danish People’s Party”) was polling as high as 25 percent nationwide, but today Denmark’s far-right parties are largely excluded from direct parliamentary influence. The right’s policies on migration and integration have been largely adopted by the Social Democratic-led government, however, bringing far-right politics into the Danish political mainstream while the far-right itself is caught in a long and messy process of splintering, regroupment, and re-radicalisation....

Rosa Luxemburg vécut la naissance du mouvement sioniste et fut une adversaire résolue de toute forme de sionisme. Elle pensait que le sionisme était une tentative ridicule tendant à faire diversion pour détourner les opprimés et exploités de leur combat contre les exploitants et exploiteurs. Rosa Luxemburg agit toujours en internationaliste. Quelles que soient les formes de nationalisme, allemand, français, polonais ou bien encore sioniste, elle les combattit sans relâche et n’évita aucune confrontation...

The aggressiveness of the United States in a context of intertwining economies
Since his return to power in January 2025, Donald Trump and his government have triggered multiple instances of outrage and coercive measures on an international scale and in particular vis-à-vis countries or regional organisations previously considered as allies: Canada, Mexico, Ukraine and of course the European Union (EU). Apart from the words and the abandonment of the rhetoric of human rights – which the West has held dear for three ...
