The Left generally favours government or social control over economics and the redistribution of wealth, and is against social hierarchy and authority over moral behaviour, strict adherence to tradition, monoculturalism, privilege for the wealthy, and other values commonly associated with the political right. Many on the Left describe themselves as "progressive", a term that arose from their self-identification as the side of social progress.
