Who supports the New Left? Evidence from Croatia

After decades of leftist quiescence in Croatia, new social movements have created viable political alternatives. This paper analyses the New Left's electoral support using 2021 survey data. The findings show greater support from younger, urban, and culturally liberal individuals, who do not favour increased state market intervention. While some New Left factions support neoliberal policies, this stance must be viewed in the context of high corruption in Croatia, as New Left voters care about socio-economic inequality. These findings align with recent qualitative studies, suggesting further research into the links between corruption, individual attitudes, and support for the New Left.
