SmallQuiz -- The World’s Smallest Political Quiz
Newton version by Glen Raphael, Baklava Software. This program is freeware.
Use this simple 10-question quiz to discover your political identity! The quiz plots your position on a variant of the Nolan Chart, which is a two-dimensional political spectrum invented by political scientist David Nolan in 1972 as an alternative to the left-right spectrum. Depending on your answers, you could end up as "left/liberal", "right/conservative", "centrist", "libertarian", "authoritarian", or some combination of the above. A good conversation-starter at parties!
Instructions: Answer all ten questions by clicking on either "yes", "no", or select "maybe" if you are unsure or have reservations of some sort. When you've answered all the questions, hit the "Score me!" button at the bottom for your results. (this is all pretty obvious). Click in any region of the chart to see who agrees with you and a description of your political philosophy. A future version will include relevant historical quotes and additional contact information, particularly useful if you're in the 17-25% who score Libertarian.
