Political Spectrum

The political spectrum is a way to organize and understand different political beliefs and ideologies based on how individuals or parties view government and society. Typically, it ranges from left to right. The left emphasizes equality, social welfare, and government intervention in the economy, often supporting progressive social policies. The right favors individual responsibility, free markets, and limited government intervention, often emphasizing tradition and existing social structures. In between, there are various degrees of moderation, with some advocating for gradual change. The spectrum helps clarify political differences, but real-world beliefs often overlap and are more nuanced than a simple line.
