- Green political parties internationally
Green parties are described often as politically "neither left nor right but out in front" ...
Green values on environmental, social justice and peace politics, and Green parties around the world are creating new and visionary ways to approach political issues and strive toward new definition of environmental security...
Green parties are unique in their cross-border political formations in approx 1/2 of the countries of the world...

SJS / Siterunner
Posted a number of articles this week on the role of the Greens in "opening up debate" within the constrained US "duopoly", the dominant two-party system and restricted set of policy options and position that enter the political arena, whether domestic or foreign/national security policy.
Over the years, more and more of the US electorate is declaring themselves "independent" of the Democrats and Republicans. Polls track a steady upward trend over the past decades and currently indicate approximately 43% of American citizens consider themselves neither Democrat or Republican.
The current 2016 presidential campaign is likewise finding many commentators and media, political scientists and activists calling for opening up the the presidential debates to the two 'major-minor' independent parties -- the Green Party (www.gp.org) and the Libertarian Party (www.lp.org).
This opening up of the political system is what your siterunner has strived to achieve since the early 1990s.

The U.S. Green Party "Ten Key Values"
○
As I look back at the drafting of the U.S. Green Party's Key Values adopted formally as I presented them to the 2000 national Green Party Convention in Denver, along with the founding Green Party national platform, it remains for future greens, whether formally affiliated with the Green Party in the US or greens who share core values of Green parties to do their best in bringing the values and positions of green thought into reality.
The politics of the present era clearly demand the independent, future-oriented vision of green, environmentally focused 'planet citizens'...

From SJS to Charlene Spretnak:
"As the person who held a serious responsibility in redrafting the Key Values statement and changing the question format that came out of the 1984 Green meeting, I can say (and have said in numerous speeches, talks, articles and posts) that the Key Values are the values foundation on which we constructed our founding national Green Party Platform.... I often have explained our Green Key Values underpinning in speeches and in my writing over the years. The values of the Greens are a beginning point, an appropriate and a deeply held core set of beliefs that suffuse our platform... I was careful as I drafted platform language during these initial years and engaged with Greens in an extended process. I always pointed out the special, distinguishing role the Key Values hold..."
