List of political ideologies (INWU)

A political ideology is a belief system concerned with conceptions of how society should work and offering a political and cultural blueprint for a certain idealized social order, sustaining its conclusions on specific ethical, ideological and doctrinal ideals. Political ideologies have two dimensions: one one hand its objectives, i.e. or how society should be organized; and on the other methods, i.e. the most appropriate way to achieve this goal.

The following list attempts to divide ideologies found in common political life into a number of macro-groups of practical, historical and ideological relation. To this end, ideologies are grouped based on their placement on three basic axes – political, societal, and economic – in relation to their respective communitarian or individualistic ideals.
