The magazine has a leftist position. Most of its articles are by contributors with a clear sympathy for the Socialist Party of Switzerland and its projects. This is especially noticed during the periods previous to Elections or referendums. At these times, where the future of a proposed bill to become a law is at stake, the magazine takes a clear position in favor of the Socialist Party and its political ally the Green Party of Switzerland.
The magazine also has pro European Union tendencies. It often criticizes the fact that Switzerland is not a member of the EU.
