Overview

This page is intended as a catalog or index of existing political ideologies.

Usage

• Political ideology currently redirects here; it should eventually be a separate page discussing the concept rather than different examples.

Related Pages

• Belief in a particular moral system is usually the basis for (or a strong component of) an individual's agreement with a particular political ideology.
• The habit of assuming that all political ideologies can be simply evaluated as falling somewhere along a one-dimensional "left-right" axis is generally misleading and historically arbitrary. Other political ideological axes have been proposed, generally using two or more dimensions, and it seems likely that at least four dimensions will be necessary in order to avoid significant ideological conflation.

List

• collectivism
• conservatism
  • US conservatism
• fascism
• liberalism
  • US liberalism

Notes

maybe these should go under ideologies or worldviews

• mysticism: intuition important, observation unimportant
• nihilism could be defined as a very low value assigned to human understanding (further implying that neither intuition nor reason has much value either)
• postmodernism
• romanticism
