Sixty-seven political identities, mapped along six analytical axes.
They are shown all together by default; you can filter to just Contemporary or just Historic identities. The identities are not points on one left–right line; they differ in which dimension they prioritize. Click any identity for its profile.
An interpretive model for thinking, not a measurement. Placements reflect each label's mainstream tendency; many overlap and several (anarchism, socialism, fascism, religion-based movements) span multiple eras and regions, so the layer assignments are rough conveniences. Dot color runs blue→red by a computed left–right score (economics, social values and nationalism).
This 2D map shows two of the six axes; hover a dot for its name, click for the full six-axis radar and profile. Toggle the layers above to reduce clutter. The legend below is ordered left→right.
A conceptual reference. Two patterns the six-axis view makes visible: many populist and religious movements (national conservatism, MAGA, Islamism, Peronism) sit near the economic center, having broken with free-market orthodoxy; and "strong state" is independent of left/right — communism and fascism share the authoritarian extreme from opposite economic poles, while anarchism and anarcho-capitalism share the anti-state extreme.
