The important themes for left-wing populists usually include anti-capitalism, social justice, pacifism and anti-globalization, whereas class society ideology or socialist theory is not as important as it is to traditional left-wing parties.
Vigtige temaer for venstrepopulister omfatter normalt antikapitalisme, social retfærdighed, pacifisme og anti-globalisering, hvorimod henvisning til klassesamfund eller socialistisk teori ikke er så vigtig som for de traditionelle venstrefløjspartier.
