This house prefers the New Left over the Social Democratic Left
Infoslide

What distinguishes it from the traditional social democratic left is its reluctance to globalization (including high skepticism towards NATO, the EU and often immigration), radicalism and criticism of the entire economic and political system instead of reformism. In some countries they managed to exercise power, although as part of the ruling coalition (Greek SYRIZA, German Linke), in some they are isolated, as is the radical right (France). In most countries, it still has less support than the traditional center-left parties
