Front de Gauche

Front de Gauche, meaning "Left Front," was a political coalition in France founded in 2009, primarily comprising socialist, communist, and ecologist parties. It aimed to promote progressive policies such as social justice, workers' rights, environmental sustainability, and anti-austerity measures. The coalition sought to provide a unified left-wing alternative to more centrist or right-wing parties, advocating for increased public services, economic equality, and social inclusion. While it gained some support, it remained a smaller movement within the broader French political landscape, emphasizing collective action and anti-neoliberal strategies.
