These four axes follow structures established in political science · see how we measure →
Values markets, growth, and free competition
You believe the free activity of individuals and businesses grows society as a whole. Competition and achievement deserve fair rewards, and state intervention should stop at what is truly necessary. You cherish self-reliance and the vitality of markets. The balance is complete when you also consider how to embrace those left behind by competition.
Values international cooperation, openness, and global solidarity
You see opportunity in cooperation and exchange across borders. Problems like climate and migration can't be solved by one country alone, and you stay open to other cultures and backgrounds. A broad view and a sense of solidarity are your strengths. Your ideals become even sturdier when you also mind the practical interests your own country faces.
Values social order, safety, and the authority of the state
You value a society that runs safely and in good order. To protect the community, you accept a degree of discipline and strong public authority, and you treasure a sense of stability. Respect for responsibility and norms is your strength. You become even sturdier by watching that individual rights are not crushed along the way.
Values tradition, stability, and proven customs
You give weight to long-proven values and customs. You prefer a gradual, stable path over abrupt change, and you cherish the traditions and pride of the community. Prudence and deep-rooted stability are your strengths. You become even more flexible by keeping a door open to new currents.
A fun look at real historical figures mapped onto the four axes — not an academic classification
He achieved the 'miracle on the Rhine' through a market economy and opened the door to European integration — while holding firmly to the order of strong leadership and Catholic traditional values.

He kept balanced budgets centered on private enterprise, opened doors to alliances and international cooperation, and stood for law and order alongside the traditional values of faith and family — a model of moderate conservatism.

A society that readily opens its door to new things from outside, while the order it has lived by and the values kept for a long time are not shaken lightly. Where whatever is worth using is taken in without fuss, and yet the basics and the courtesies are kept to the end.
Underneath these hopes is a sense that you can open the door with an easy mind only when the inside is solid. So this stance believes neither in shutting blindly nor in opening blindly, but in an openness that keeps what must be kept. But there's a tension: the outside world always changes faster than the things it means to keep, so it has to keep re-deciding how far to open and where to stop.
Overall, you tilt slightly conservative. You respect stability and tradition, yet remain flexible enough to make progressive choices in some areas.
Across the four axes: progressive 1 · conservative 3 — it can differ by axis.
The progressive–conservative label is a rough guide based on how this test defines its axes.
