Policies
The YRL advocate republicanism, insisting on laïcité (secularism), and positioning them against the idea of affirmative action as advocating equality of treatment between all citizens.
The YRL also defend the idea of individual and civil liberties and the concept of progressivism supporting gay marriage, right to abort and euthanasia.
The Young Radicals of the Left desire a 6th Republic with more transparent and democratic institutions.
The YRL support the idea of a Federal Europe and support also the accession of Turkey to the European Union.
The Young Radicals of the Left wishes to apply the concept of Laïcité over the whole territory of France (nowaday, in Alsace and Moselle, secularism between the Church and the State is still not implemented). They asked for introducing the notion of secularism in the IFLRY Manifesto in Istanbul in 2011; their motion was accepted.

The YRL are full members of the International Federation of Liberal Youth (IFLRY) and associate members of the LYMEC since 2013. A member of the YRL was elected President of the LYMEC in 1994.
