Ideological Spectrum
The ideological spectrum is a way to organize different political beliefs based on their ideas about how society should be structured and governed. It often ranges from left to right: the left typically advocates for equality, social welfare, and change, while the right emphasizes tradition, individual responsibility, and sometimes limited government. People’s views can fall anywhere along this continuum, reflecting their priorities and values. Understanding this spectrum helps explain political debates and why different groups may support different policies, aiming for a clearer picture of the diverse range of ideas in politics.
