LABOR should govern alone or not at all, Treasurer Chris Bowen says in a new book about the party's future.

But he insisted on Thursday that was not a criticism of the past three years of minority government during which Labor held power through written agreements with the Australian Greens and independent MPs.

"This term of office has been one in which we've achieved a lot ... by working with other political parties and independents," Mr Bowen told ABC's 7.30.

But he believed that in the future, when Labor had put its own views during an election campaign, "we should govern alone and that we should not enter into formal agreements with other political parties".

"We have a lot to offer with our policies and we shouldn't need the policies of the Greens," he said.

"We believe in things the Greens party fundamentally disagrees with and we have a separate existence."

Mr Bowen's book, Hearts & Minds: A Blueprint for Modern Labor, will be launched by News Ltd boss Kim Williams on Friday in Sydney.
