POLITICAL PHILOSOPHIES
Libertarian
Libertarians are self-governors in both personal and economic matters.
They believe government's only purpose is to protect people from coercion
and violence. They value individual responsibility, and tolerate economic
and social diversity. They are strong constitutionalists.

Left-Liberal
Left-Liberals prefer self-government in personal matters and central
decision-making on economics. They want government to serve the
disadvantaged in the name of fairness. Leftists tolerate social diversity, but
work for economic equality.

Centrist
Centrists favor selective government intervention and emphasize practical
solutions to current problems. They tend to keep an open mind on new
issues. Many centrists feel that government serves as a check on
excessive liberty.

Right-Conservative
Right-conservatives prefer self-government on economic issues, but want
official standards in personal matters. They want the government to defend
the community from threats to its moral fiber.

Authoritarian
Authoritarians want government to advance society and individuals
through expert central planning. They often doubt whether self-government
is practical. Left-authoritarians are also called socialists, while fascists are
right-authoritarians.
