Multidimensionele ideologische test

[Herr Oberst]

Hier (http://www.politicsforum.org/forum/z_pofo_political_test.php) een test die uw politieke en ideologische voorkeur zou moeten benaderen. Niet de zoveelste links-rechts-test, of zelfs niet de zoveelste test met 2 assen, maar met veel meer dimensies. Hier alvast mijn resultaten (komt aardig in de buurt, denk ik zo):

Overall, the PoliticsForum quiz considers you a socially-orientated, theist, big-government, nationalist, protectionist, absolutist, controlled-market kind of person.
These characteristics would put you in the overall category of social conservative protectionist with a hint of socialism.

Individual vs Social

"The individualist believes that society works best through a focus on individual rights, freedoms, actions and responsibilities. The social thinker believes that the ideal state should focus more upon collective action and take a social approach to rights and responsibilities."

You scored 67 out of 100 on a scale of Individual vs Social. This means that politically you are more likely to value the need for group actions and group benefit over individual enterprise and benefit.

Theist vs Materialist

"The materialist believes that all objective criteria to influence politics can be reasonably derived without recourse to the divine or the spiritual. The theist believes that spiritual beliefs are important and should influence government policy."

You scored 9 out of 100 on a scale of Theist vs Materialist. This means that politically you are less likely to believe that religion and spirituality are superstitions that should not inform political debate.

Big Government vs Small Government

"The big government advocate believes that governments should be responsible for regulating a wide array of social practices, even what might be considered personal decisions such as abortion, euthanasia, children's education and births. A small government advocate thinks that, wherever possible, these issues should be up to individuals or companies to direct."

You scored 19 out of 100 on a scale of Big Government vs Small Government. This means that politically you are less likely to believe that government should keep out of legislating social policies, leaving such decisions to individuals.

Nationalist vs Internationalist

"The nationalist believes in the sovereign rule of nation states, particularly his or her own. The internationalist believes that there should be more important international fora and perhaps, ultimately, international government."

You scored 8 out of 100 on a scale of Nationalist vs Internationalist. This means that politically you are less likely to favour international bodies over national ones.

Protectionist vs Free Trader

"The protectionist believes in barriers against free trade most probably due to a belief that this is in his or her country's interests. The free trader rejects such notions, believing that the system ultimately suffers when tariffs, subsidies and other obstacles to free trade persist."

You scored 4 out of 100 on a scale of Protectionist vs Free Trader. This means that politically you are less likely to favour free trade over protectionist policies.

Absolutist vs Non-Absolutist

"The absolutist believes that either a divine presence or scientific laws provide absolute truths about the world, which can and should be applied in practise. The non-absolutist may be either a relativist, or simply someone who is more pragmatic."

You scored 24 out of 100 on a scale of Absolutist vs Non Absolutist. This means that politically you are more likely to believe that there is an absolute truth that may guide your ideological beliefs.

Controlled Market vs Liberal Market

"Both of these categories assume a capitalist system. Assuming this system, the controlled market believer holds that government should intervene in regulating a nation's economy: wage laws, environmental standards, privatised industries and workplace relations policy. A liberal market thinker believes that such regulation is unnecessary and often counter-productive."

You scored 13 out of 100 on a scale of Controlled Market vs Liberal Market. This means that politically you are more likely to believe that there is need for government regulation of industry.

Marxist vs Non-Marxist

"This scale purports to show to what extent you follow the thought and teachings of Marx. Marxists tend to be scientific, materialist and revolutionary, believe in class struggle and the laws of historical and dialectic materialism."

You scored 48 out of 100 on a scale of Marxist vs Non-Marxist. This means that politically you are neither more nor less likely to follow the philosophies of Marx.

Kijk 'ns aan. Er schuilt een marxistje in lombas, wie had dat gedacht.

Kijk 'ns aan. Er schuilt een marxistje in lombas, wie had dat gedacht.

Waarschijnlijk vanwege mijn oordeel op de vragen van klasse en revolutie.

Maar eigenlijk was Marx daar de mosterd voor gaan halen bij anderen.

[L. J. Brutus]

Waarschijnlijk vanwege mijn oordeel op de vragen van klasse en revolutie.

Idem dito bij mij.

[Pølle]

Zijn jullie dan voor revoluties? Ik dacht de geschiedenis al aantoonde dat het plots doorvoeren van ingrijpende veranderingen meestal faalde? Hoe zie jij dat?

(Ik neem even aan dat het dat is wat met revolutie bedoeld wordt, en dus niet ingrijpende veranderingen die er decennia- of eeuwenlang over doen, zoals de industriële revolutie.)

[lombas]

Zijn jullie dan voor revoluties? Ik dacht de geschiedenis al aantoonde dat het plots doorvoeren van ingrijpende veranderingen meestal faalde? Hoe zie jij dat?

Ik zou een revolutie eerder definiëren als de uiting die er voor zorgt dat een bepaalde reeds bestaande omstandigheid aanvaard wordt.

Het 'om'wentelen van de interpretatie dus, niet van de werkelijkheid.

[Pølle]

Ik zou een revolutie eerder definiëren als de uiting die er voor zorgt dat een bepaalde reeds bestaande omstandigheid aanvaard wordt.

Het 'om'wentelen van de interpretatie dus, niet van de werkelijkheid.

En bestaat er reeds een omstandigheid die voldoende is of kan zijn voor een libertarische revolutie hier en nu, denk je? Of is het geklaag over 'die zakkenvullers' niet genoeg?

Persoonlijk denk ik dat we de eerste decennia eerder zullen evolueren naar meer belastingdruk en meer overheidsbemoeienis. Er lijkt mij meer een omstandigheid aanwezig waardoor mensen het gerechtvaardigd vinden om op anderen te parasiteren, zonder daar enige schroom voor te voelen.

[lombas]

En bestaat er reeds een omstandigheid die voldoende is of kan zijn voor een libertarische revolutie hier en nu, denk je? Of is het geklaag over 'die zakkenvullers' niet genoeg?

Ik denk niet dat zo'n omwenteling nu enige werkelijkheidswaarde heeft, nee.

Persoonlijk denk ik dat ook, zonder dat ik de tegencultuur onderschat. Ik voorspel binnen een tien �* twintigtal jaar de rebellie van Generation Y. In tegenstelling tot de 68'ers, zullen zij pas op latere leeftijd de tegencultuur kiezen en dus ook meer gewicht in de schaal kunnen werpen.

Enfin, geheel persoonlijk.

29% of test takers were more individual than you.
69% of test takers were more social than you.



Theist vs Materialist

[Volksstormer]

Bekrompen eikels allemaal, dit soort tests is gewoon uitgevonden door andere eikels die tot niets anders of beters in staat zijn dan te lullen over BHV en andere bijkomstigheden.

De hele menswetenschappen zijn gewoon bullshit. Wie oorzaken en wijsheid zoekt, moet niet bij politicologen of menswetenschappers zijn. Als ze al eens iets interessants op te merken hebben, dan zijn het meestal inzichten die niet nieuw, maar al eeuwenoud zijn...

Voor de verandering is het testje eens "multidimensioneel". :roll:

Hoe meer jullie dit naast de kwestie of beledigend vinden, hoe beter! De zalige rust van een kudde schapen of koeien verstoor je nu eenmaal ook niet door er een intellectueel exposé tegen te beginnen...

Sluit het subforum rechts toch gewoon! Wat is het "nut" van om de zoveel dagen eens een nutteloze bijdrage te lezen of te posten? DIT is (stervend) rechts Vlaanderen, DIT is (stervend) Vlaanderen!

Jullie kunnen beter een retroforum beginnen. Niet voor degenen die in het Interbellum geïnteresseerd zijn, maar voor ouwe zakken die in de "Golden Sixties" zijn blijven steken en mei '68 en al de rest (hun schuld!) nog altijd niet verteerd hebben...

[Metternich]

Amai zeg volksstormer, zo in je gat gebeten vandaag.

[Volksstormer]

Indien ik zo vrij mag zijn: waar zet u heden ten dage (nog) op in (indien al iets/iemand) ?
Geen noemenswaardige. Ik zal u in een pm wel enkele buitenlandse (internationale) fora aanraden.

[Herr Oberst]

Ik bemerk hier nochtans bitter weinig reactie op uw gefrustreerd gejengel, hoor.

De echte revolutionairen hebben het Interbellum niet overleefd. That's my point.

Ik verwacht ook niet van u dat ge dat (ooit) zult snappen.
