Technological development is not synonymous with human progress, and should be judged by its effects on autonomy, family, community and work.
Nature is an inheritance entrusted to humanity rather than a commodity without limit or a divinity, and should be stewarded accordingly.
Work has dignity but is not the purpose of human existence. Economic progress should increase security, leisure and command over one's own life.
Every question in this catalogue carries a position. Entries marked Derived follow the direction of the manifesto without their implementation being fixed, and several name the legal or treaty change they would require. Positions are revised as the movement decides; the version and date above say which text you are reading.
