Platform for a Just Nouvelle Alexandrie
The Alliance for a Just Nouvelle Alexandrie (AJNE; Alliance pour une Nouvelle Alexandrie Juste) is a political coalition in Nouvelle Alexandrie, established in 1733 AN by three progressive parties: the Democratic Socialist Party of Nouvelle Alexandrie (DSP), the Wakara People's Party (WPP), and United for Alvelo (UfA). The AJNE was formed to contest the 1734 general elections, presenting a unified progressive front against the dominant Federal Consensus Party and the Federal Humanist Party.
History and Formation
The AJNE was officially announced on 1.XV.1733 AN in Punta Santiago, Alduria, against a backdrop of growing voter discontent with the two major parties, the Federal Consensus Party and the Federal Humanist Party. The alliance emerged in response to various global crises, including the recent nuclear exchange in Benacia, aiming to tackle critical issues such as economic inequality, environmental protection, and indigenous rights.
Platform and Policies
The AJNE's platform is characterized as "progressively pragmatic," balancing idealistic objectives with practical governance strategies. The key components of their platform include:
- The Progressive Prosperity Plan: A strategy to transition Nouvelle Alexandrie to 100% renewable energy by 1750 AN, aiming to create millions of green jobs.
- Economic Reforms: Proposals include strengthening labor unions, implementing a universal basic income, and reducing income inequality through progressive taxation.
- Indigenous Rights: Full endorsement of the WPP's Plurinational Federation Constitutional Amendment Act, 1727.
- Public Services: Major investments in healthcare, education, and public transportation, including free university education and the development of a national high-speed rail network.
- Democratic Dirigisme: A modernized approach to state-guided economic planning, focusing on strategic industries and technologies.
- Environmental Protection: Enforcing strict regulations on industrial pollution, expanding national parks, and banning environmentally destructive practices.
- Social Justice: Implementing comprehensive reforms in criminal justice, LGBTQ+ rights, and racial equity, including reparations for historically marginalized communities.
