  2. Nolan Chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nolan_Chart

    In migration policy, for example, both sociocultural and economic issues are at play. The view that the Right can be defined by its acceptance of state intervention into the domestic sphere (little 'personal freedom') and the Left by its rejection, is false. In the U.S., the Right generally opposed gun control, while the Left argues for it.

  3. Political spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_spectrum

    As seen from the Speaker's seat at the front of the Assembly, the aristocracy sat on the right (traditionally the seat of honor) and the commoners sat on the left, hence the terms right-wing politics and left-wing politics. [6] Originally, the defining point on the ideological spectrum was the Ancien Régime ("old order").

  4. Horseshoe theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horseshoe_theory

    Proponents of horseshoe theory argue that the far-left and the far-right are closer to each other than either is to the political center. In popular discourse, the horseshoe theory asserts that advocates of the far-left and the far-right, rather than being at opposite and opposing ends of a linear continuum of the political spectrum, closely resemble each other, analogous to the way that the ...

  5. The Political Compass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Political_Compass

    The economic (leftright) axis measures one's opinion of how the economy should be run. [1] In economic terms, the political left is defined as the desire for the economy to be run by a cooperative collective agency, which can mean a sovereign state but also a network of communes , while the political right is defined as the desire for the ...

  6. Left–right political spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leftright_political...

    Populism is regarded as having both left-wing and right-wing manifestations in the form of left-wing populism and right-wing populism, respectively. [50] Green politics is generally regarded as a movement of the left, although there are also green conservatives. Andrew Dobson suggests that green politics contains an inherent conservatism as it ...

  7. Aerodynamic center - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerodynamic_center

    The distribution of forces on a wing in flight are both complex and varying. This image shows the forces for two typical airfoils, a symmetrical design on the left, and an asymmetrical design more typical of low-speed designs on the right. This diagram shows only the lift components; the similar drag considerations are not illustrated.

  8. String diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_diagram

    A monoidal category where every object has a left and right adjoint is called a rigid category. String diagrams for rigid categories can be defined as non-progressive plane graphs, i.e. the edges can bend backward. In the context of categorical quantum mechanics, this is known as the snake equation.

  9. Dutch roll - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_roll

    For example, in a left yaw the left wing slews toward the rear so that airflow is displaced spanwise from its normal front-to-rear path over the airfoil section. That reduces lift. Simultaneously, the advancing right wing gets more chordwise flow, and so its lift is increased. In combination the two conditions create a left roll.
