Left Struggle (Greek: Μαχόμενη Αριστερά, "Fighting Left") was a Greek far left political coalition of the revolutionary left that was formed in September 1993 amidst the 1993 Greek parliamentary election. The parties that made up Left Struggle were New Left Current, KKE (m-l), EKKE and EEK, while it was supported by many unafilliated leftists. Fundamental to the movement's foundation was the common role in the anti-war movement for the occasion of the war and the dissolution of Yugoslavia. Also important was the political proposal of New Left Current to create the Front of the Independent Anti-establishment Left on July 1993 that set the stage for co-operation on a political scale.
After 1997 political and ideological differences lead to deviant choices and in 1998 Left Struggle was inactive. In May 1999, New Left Current, EKKE and EEK participated in the founding of the Radical Left Front (MERA).
