Alliance of Progressives

The Alliance of Progressives ("Alleanza dei Progressisti") was a left-wing electoral coalition in Italy in 1994.

It was composed of:
*the Democratic Party of the Left (democratic-socialist) ;
*the Communist Refoundation Party (communist) ;
*the Italian Socialist Party (social-democratic) ;
*the Federation of the Greens (green) ;
*The Net – Movement for Democracy (social-liberal) ;
*Democratic Alliance (social-liberal) ;
*the Social Christians (christian social-democratic).

Achille Occhetto was candidate for Prime Minister.

The Alliance suffered a huge defeat from the centre-right Pole of Freedoms/Pole of Good Government. In 1996 it was succeeded by the Olive Tree coalition, including the Italian People's Party (diminished by the split of the United Christian Democrats in 1995), Italian Renewal and Patto Segni, and excluding the Communist Refoundation Party, which was an external ally and presented its candidates under the "Progressives" banner in single-seat constituencies in Central Italy.
