Più Europa's foundation is an unwavering liberalism that intertwines economic pragmatism with social progressivism. The party views Italy not as an isolated nation, but as an integral part of a federal Europe. Its vision of humanity is characterized by radical autonomy: individuals should be free from state paternalism to decide over their lives, bodies, and prosperity. European law often serves as a corrective and anchor for national reforms, ensuring the rule of law and modern standards.
The agenda focuses on modernizing Italy through market liberalization, deregulation, and reducing national debt. Più Europa primarily targets the young, urban generation, academics, and entrepreneurs who seek to benefit from globalization. Key demands include the legalization of cannabis, strengthening LGBTQ+ rights, and liberal euthanasia laws. Economically, the party advocates for lowering the tax burden on labor and investing in innovation to maintain Italy's global competitiveness and break its dependence on state subsidies.
Strategically, the party acts as a liberal corrective force within the center-left spectrum, often serving as an ideological catalyst for larger alliances. It occupies the niche of "pro-European advocates," staunchly opposing sovereignism and populism. It sees the institutions of the rule of law as the necessary bulwark against illiberal tendencies. Despite its often modest size, its clear intellectual positioning and international networking allow it to exert a disproportionate influence on the political discourse concerning the modernization of Italian administration and justice.
