Ideologists:

Republicans are more conservative than Democrats

Three Non-Ideologists:

🔹️ "Opposites" - Democratics are more conservative than Republicans

🔹️ "Uniforms" - The two parties are ideologically similar

🔹️ "Ignorants" - Have no opinion

We distinguish between ideologists and non-ideologists by comparing the rank order of their placement of two major parties on the ideology scale to the experts’ rank order. Our distinction between the two is based on the examination of the participants’ cognitive consistency (see Ganzach, 2018). The ideologists are those whose rank order corresponds to the “true” (i.e., experts’) rank order (e.g., those who say that Republicans are more conservative than Democrats). The non-ideologists included three sub-groups. The first, which we label the opposites, was described above, (e.g., those who rate the Democratic party in the US as more conservative than the Republican party). The second, which we label the uniforms, include respondents who judge the two parties as being ideologically similar, even though the experts’ judgment is that they are different (e.g., those who say that Republicans and Democrats are equally conservative). The third sub-group, which we label the ignorants, include respondents who do not have an opinion regarding the location of the parties on an ideological dimension (e.g., respondent who answered “don’t know” or “haven’t thought much about this” to the questions regarding the ideological position of the parties).

It's been four years since I first published COLDAT, a simple dataset on the reach and duration of European colonial empires.

After almost 2,500 downloads 🙏 I'm now happy to share the first update with some important corrections.

"The left-right [political ideology] item is hiding important midpoint political diversity, and in particular, populist beliefs that have been considered characteristic of the far-left and right."

If Canada joins the EU, do they get universal healthcare AND four weeks of vacation? America is starting to look real lonely over there. 🇨🇦 ➡️ 🇺🇸 or 🇪🇺

The #DR2025 finds that the 3 most improving indicators belong to the #FreedomOfExpression Index.
The second most important component in many of the ongoing democratizers seems to be liberal aspects that strengthen #RuleOfLaw and #ExecutiveOversight.
