Equality

Those with higher Equality scores believe the economy should distribute value evenly among the citizenship. They tend to support progressive tax codes, social programs, and, at high values, socialism.

Those with higher Market scores believe the economy should be focused on rapid growth. They tend to support lower taxes, privatization, deregulation, and, at high values, laissez-faire capitalism.

Diplomatic Axis: Nation vs. Globe

Nation

Those with higher Nation scores are patriotic and nationalist. They often believe in an aggressive foreign policy, valuing the military, strength, sovereignty, and, at high values, geopolitical dominance.

World

Those with higher World scores are cosmopolitan and globalist. They often believe in a peaceful foreign policy, emphasizing diplomacy, cooperation, integration, and, at high values, a one-world government.

Civil Axis: Liberty vs. Authority

Liberty

Those with higher Liberty scores want strong civil liberties. They tend to support democracy and oppose state intervention in personal lives. Note that this refers to civil liberties, not economic liberties.

Progress

Those with higher Progress scores believe in social change and the upheaval of traditional norms. Many are also atheist and see the golden age as being in front of us (i.e., in the future).
