The Eight Political Values
8values measures four independent political axes. Each axis pairs two values that pull results toward different priorities.
Choose an axis
Economic Axis
Equality vs Markets: distribution, growth, taxes, programs, and market freedom.
Diplomatic Axis
Nation vs Globe: sovereignty, cooperation, military posture, and integration.
Civil Axis
Liberty vs Authority: personal freedoms, state power, order, and intervention.
Societal Axis
Tradition vs Progress: moral continuity, change, secularism, science, and reform.
Why axes matter
A political view can mix positions that do not fit neatly into one spectrum. Someone can favor economic redistribution while preferring social tradition. Someone else can support strong civil liberty while preferring international cooperation.
The 8values result keeps these dimensions separate. The axis pages explain the values individually; the results guide explains how the paired percentages appear after the quiz.
