According to its official platform, Future Left describes itself as a "movement party" (
rörelseparti) for those who refuse to accept injustice, advocating socialism, feminism, anti-racism, anti-imperialism, decolonisation, and a just ecological transition. The party additionally emphasises eco-socialism, anti-capitalism, anti-colonialism, intersectionality, and a revolutionary transformation of society, arguing that capitalism cannot be repaired but must be replaced through democratic, grassroots-driven system change. The party argues that Swedish society is a class society shaped by a structural power relation between those who own and control production and those who sell their labour. It holds that welfare, housing, energy, and essential resources should be democratically controlled, and that socialism, feminist politics, and anti-racism are inseparable components of the same struggle. The party opposes the
privatisation and
marketisation of public services, arguing that private profit in welfare provision is inherently contradictory to its purpose. The party's strategy rests on three interconnected pillars: activism, popular education, and parliamentarism, an approach it describes as "revolutionary democratisation". It distinguishes between system-preserving reforms and reforms that challenge the existing order, advocating reduced working hours, strengthened trade union influence, the right to strike, and the democratic conversion of key industries, banks, and digital infrastructure to collective ownership. It proposes that during economic crises, only enterprises converting to
worker cooperatives should receive state support. The party professes an
intersectional feminism that treats patriarchy, racism, class oppression, ableism, and heteronormativity as interlocking systems of power. It emphasises
reproductive justice, opposes the commercialisation of bodies including
surrogacy and
sex trafficking, and calls for protection systems that serve all survivors of violence regardless of migration status, sexuality, or gender identity. The party warns against
femonationalism and
homonationalism, rejecting the instrumentalisation of feminist or LGBTQ+ rights for nationalist or anti-immigrant purposes, and criticises political frameworks that reduce gender to biology alone, arguing that such approaches erase
transgender and
intersex people. The party identifies racism as operating through two interlinked logics: exploitation, which treats certain groups as less valuable to justify their economic subordination, and exclusion, which frames racialised groups as threats to society. It traces contemporary racist structures to
colonialism and
imperialism, and singles out
anti-Muslim racism as one of the most politically central forms of racism in Sweden, arguing that it has been institutionalised through state policy, security discourse, and public debate and serves as a wedge for broader authoritarian projects. The party identifies climate justice as inherently linked to class struggle and anti-colonial politics, advocating
eco-socialism based on
degrowth. It argues that a system premised on infinite economic growth cannot resolve ecological crises, and calls for dismantling the fossil-fuel industry, democratic planning of the economy, a ban on
planned obsolescence, and collective control over natural resources. The party also criticises the environmental footprint of the technology and
artificial intelligence industries, arguing that their resource extraction reproduces colonial patterns. The party's anti-imperialist line includes opposition to
NATO and the Defence Cooperation Agreement between Sweden and the United States, demanding Swedish withdrawal from both. It opposes all Swedish
arms exports and calls for ending the transfer of resources from welfare to military spending. It is critical towards the
arms industry, including Sweden's
military aid to Ukraine. On the
Israeli–Palestinian conflict, the party supports the
Palestinian right of return, calls for Sweden to resume funding to
UNRWA, and advocates severing all military, academic, and trade agreements with Israel. It expresses support for a
one-state solution in Palestine where all inhabitants live together regardless of ethnicity or religion, and states that the party does not oppose
armed resistance in liberation struggles against colonial and authoritarian regimes. The party advocates withdrawing Sweden from the
European Union, which it describes as "capital's union", arguing that EU rules have consistently protected capital interests at the expense of popular rights. It calls for a new form of European cooperation based on common tax policy, social convergence, and solidarity between peoples rather than states. == See also ==
