The thirteen axes

The calculation

Each axis is measured by statements worded half toward one pole and half toward the other, so people who tend to always answer "yes" aren't pushed to one side. Answers marked "This matters to me" carry more weight.

Your match with an ideology, a figure or a party measures how close your positions are across the thirteen axes. Core issues (economy, state, society and immigration) count more, and one sharp disagreement weighs more than many small differences. Reliability tells you how consistent and complete your answers are.

To check this, for each of the 81 ideologies we simulate a person who answers in a deliberately imprecise way: the Standard version identifies the right ideology in 84% of cases and puts it in the top three in 86%.

Party positions start from the Chapel Hill Expert Survey 2024, the ratings of more than 600 political scientists, and are updated with platforms, statements and votes through October 2026. For the newest parties we use their official platforms.

The positions of figures and ideologies are estimates based on documented writings, platforms and actions. For historical figures we consider the ideas of their time. Nations are rated on their institutions and policies, not on their people.

Logos belong to their respective parties and are used for informational purposes only.

What it isn't

• It's not voting advice: the parties are a point of reference, not a recommendation.
• It's not a psychological test or a judgment of people.
• It's a simplification: no map, however detailed, replaces the territory.
