Popular Democratic Front

The New Deal Alliance is a caucus in the Kiravian Federal Stanora made up of political parties and independents promoting a common platform of policies drawn mostly from the Kirosocialist tradition. The NDA was organised in the wake of the National Renewal Movement to promote cooperation among the numerous splinter parties and factions claiming the legacy of the defunct Kirosocialist Party. Despite some electoral support in areas where Kirosocialist policies had been popular and where economic liberalisation had not been kind to local industries, the NDA failed to mount an effective opposition to liberalisation, and was gradually edged out from most of its support base by the Caritist Social Union and Coscivian National Congress. From 21189 until 21203, the NDA was a rather minor presence in federal politics, with its share of seats in the Stanora decreasing in each election, but some of its member parties retained varying degrees of power and influence in the politics of certain states. Since 21203, NDA affiliates have launched an electoral resurgence at the state level and begun increasing their federal representation.

The Communist Party of the Kiravian Federacy and the Existential Humanist Party (Marxist), while not members of the NDA caucus, do have formal relations with it and coöperate with it on many initiatives. The Communist Party of Great Kirav rejects coöperation with the NDA and CPKF, which it has denounced as reformist and revisionist.

Factions
Envisioned as a broad front of socialist parties with a significant degree of ideological diversity among them, the NDA can be subdivided into a number of factions, officially termed "tendency groups"). Most tendency groups are organised as a interstate conferences of state-level parties. However, the SPKF, SPKU, and RCKK are federated parties with nationwide Central Committees and operate as multi-state political parties under political party control laws.

The tendency groups currently operating within the NDA are:


 * Socialist Party of the Kiravian Federacy (SPKF) - Federation of Palæo-Orthodox and Neo-Orthodox Kirosocialist parties united in 21207 under Féraluir Sekerin, healing the rift between the old-guard "Continuity Kirosocialists" (who held closely to the policies of the Kiravian Union and attributed the fall of the Kiravian Union to counterrevolutionary subversion) and the reform-minded Neo-Orthodox parties who recognised the role of Kirosocialist policy failures in the Union's collapse and need for some degree of policy adaptation within an orthodox Kirosocialist framework. Since its formation, the SPKF has emerged as the largest and most powerful tendency.
 * Socialist Party of the Kiravian Union (SPKU) - Grouping of Palæo-Orthodox hardliners who opposed the SPKF merger and explicitly reject the legitimacy of the current Kiravian constitution.
 * Kirosocialists 2 - Dialectic Boogaloo (KS2DB) - Loose grouping of heterodox Kirosocialists, whether descended from dissident factions suppressed within the Party during the Kiravian Union or formed around new ideas and alternative models of political organising after the end of Kirosocialist rule. This faction acts less as an ideological tendency advancing a common agenda, and more as a technical group working to prevent the orthodox factions from imposing a strong ideological line on the NDA as a whole.
 * Socialist National Union (SNU) - Conference representing mainly Kiravian Social-nationalists who have dropped orthodox Kirosocialist commitments to class struggle, comprehensive social control of the means of production, and the construction of "socialist culture", returning to the classical teachings of Kiravian social-nationalism before the movement's merger into the Socialist Party. Also includes the non-socialist Kirav First Party and some "Kirosocialists of the 212th century".
 * Noontide Group - A grouping of socialist and left-wing populist parties working outside the confines of traditional Kirosocialist ideological frameworks and party structures. Includes many parties organised among non-Coscivian minorities, e.g. Camhchéachta and Tryhstia's Partido do Tarabalho, as well as "post-Kirosocialist" parties like Fariva's New Direction Party.
 * Alliance for a New Socialism - Conference of the state-level Kirosocialist parties that largely acquiesced to the post-Union political and economic liberalisations, moving toward "Kiro-social democracy" and "New Kirosocialism".
 * Progressive Alliance of Socialists & Democrats - A grouping of more Western-style social-democratic, democratic socialist, eco-socialist, and left-progressive parties from outside the Kirosocialist tradition. The PASD is the smallest tendency in terms of elected representatives and party membership, but has a growing presence at the local level in some cities.
 * Revolutionary Committee of the Kiravian Kuomintang - A party of Shaftosocialists,, and Social Convists that originated from the left-wing current that once existed in the Renaissance Party. Adherents of this current remained in Great Kirav after the Renaissance Party's flight to Æonara, where some were accepted by Kirsok as members of its United Front, while others continued to operate underground in opposition to the Kirosocialist Party's rule.
 * Kiravian Proletarian Parties - Faction representing the more expressly communist and/or convist elements that have always existed as a minority within the Kirosocialist movement and remained within the Socialist Party and its successors rather than join the CPKF or CPGK.
 * Union of Religious Socialists - Grouping of religious (mostly and ) parties, most of which joined the NDA after expulsion from the CSU for their anti-capitalism and radicalism.

Voter Base
A considerable portion of the caucus' voters belong to Antaric Coscivian ethnic groups. Antaric Coscivians were generally supportive of the Kirosocialist régime and did well under Kirosocialist rule. The same can be said of many East Coscivian ethnic groups, such as the {Muśkem}. Pretannic Celts, especially those living in mining areas of Etivéra, Váuadra, Íarthakelva, Atrakelva, and Kiorgia, are a very strong demographic for the NDA, having wavered very little in their support for socialist parties since the Kirosocialist Period.

Although numerically insignificant in federal elections, various small and marginal ethnic groups that benefitted from government development projects under Kirosocialism, such as the Kiʞik Coscivians and the Salyar, continue to support socialism and provide an important source of votes for NDA affiliates in state and local elections.
