Ideology
editThe Eradah party claims itself to be centrist. The party calls for a social market economy, claiming that "This economic and social system provides freedom for individuals and private ownership of the means of production and companies, but calls for restricting them with government controls; to achieve fair competition, in addition to setting standards for working conditions, preserving the right of both employers and workers, and providing social services to access social welfare for all individuals by the state, which ensures achieving a balance between a high rate of economic growth, reducing inflation, and lowering unemployment rates".
The Eradah party is in favor of environmentalism, in which it has opposed an amendment to the tax system of Jordan it claims "reduces taxes on gasoline cars and gradually increases them on electric cars" further claiming the amendment is "an unjustified retreat from global and national economic trends towards supporting environmental sustainability and innovation in the field of transportation and energy".[5]
