12Axes ideologies and political profile families
The matching system compares your 12-axis vector with a set of political profiles. These are the major families and representative ideologies you may see.
Major ideology families
Left
Social democracy · Democratic socialism · Progressivism · Syndicalism · Communism
Profiles in this family favor redistribution and collective ownership, so they usually sit toward the public and planning poles of the economic axes.
Center
Centrism · Pragmatism · Social liberalism · Christian democracy · Constitutional monarchism
Centrist profiles combine positions from both sides and tend to land near the middle of most bars rather than at the extremes.
Right
Conservatism · Liberal conservatism · National liberalism · Neoliberalism · Monarchism
These profiles lean toward markets, established institutions and national tradition, scoring toward the private and traditionalist poles.
Libertarian
Classical liberalism · Minarchism · Anarcho-capitalism · Libertarian socialism · Mutualism
The common trait is a small state and a high liberty score. Economically the family stretches from anarcho-capitalism to libertarian socialism, so two libertarian results can differ sharply on ownership.
Authoritarian
Authoritarian conservatism · State socialism · Technocracy · Absolute monarchism · Stratocracy
These profiles accept concentrated power and strong state control, whatever the economic program attached to it.
Third position
Integralism · National syndicalism · Distributism · Corporatism · Revolutionary nationalism
Currents that reject both liberal capitalism and orthodox socialism, often pairing nationalism with corporatist economics.
Where the matches come from
The profiles are returned by an external matching service. This site sends it your twelve percentages and shows the closest profiles it returns, so the exact set can change as that database evolves. The families above are a reading aid for the categories you will meet in a result, not a complete list of every profile.
Why one label is not the whole result
The top ideology is a compact summary. Two people with the same label can differ sharply on immigration, civil liberties, religion or technology, so the twelve axis bars are the primary result.
Choose the depth
All versions use the same 12 axes and return the result immediately.
