We often heard about the political ideologies.. This can be very difficult to understand if we travel from world to world because many less countries are adhere to these ideologies, best example is USA where Democrats are left where Republicans are Right wing!! But what are these and how these came, we will clear your doubts in this blog.
This terms were first used during the French Revolution where those who want change within Monarchy were sits on left and those who want to stabilize the present conditions were in Right, after that its definition changes widely but we will present in a short manner for u to understand it. u can read it here French Revolution ..
We also need to knw about Capitalism which is very base of this system.. Capitalism means private ownerships of properties, Land, it's give profit to individuals and control of a particular business rather then control of state!! Economy runs on Capitalism of nations, to increase entrepreneurship!!
- Left Wing: they are companions of State control.. Means less Capitalism.. It's because of belief that private ownership benefits individual or certain groups, but large sects of workers who work for them are at least at disadvantage of imbalance ownership of Capital.. Theirs belief is that profits should be distributed according to works and needs of workers rather then mass Capital at hand of owner.. They are also socially open and in support of Same- sex marriage, Pro abortion, LGBT rights and other social Changes!! They want to separate religion and politics..
- Right Wing: They are champions of Capitalism!! Their belief is to increase entrepreneurship among citizens, open markets, less taxes and interfere of Government.. They are somewhat conservative because they oppose same sex marriage or don't talk about it openly, no abortions schemes or want to preserve theirs culture by less means of Immigration!! Some Right wingers ideology also based on to maintain relations with religion and politics!!!
- Communism: They are far left group.. they are fully in support of state control over property.. no individual ownership, state should completely owns everything and distribute it according to work and needs.. They are also can be termed as Socially open to all those left leaning groups.. they want stateless world, means no borders and workers of world should unite!! Best example to this Is European union where many countries doesn't have borders with security and people can go from one country to another.. they can setup business easily. But this didn't mean they are communist!! It's just a part of communism which EU adhere to!!
- Socialism: They are little less than communist.. they are in favour of Ownerships of land and property but in a limited way.. They are also in favour of state control but allows some freedom!!!
- Liberalism: Today liberals means one who supports individuality, want changes in society, support LGBT rights and open to many things which conservative oppose!! Are Communist and leftist liberals? No!! Ofcourse they support these above points of socially liberal but economically not... It is that they generally support free markets, free trade, limited government, individual rights (including civil rights and human rights), capitalism, democracy, secularism, gender equality, racial equality, internationalism, freedom of speech, freedom of the press and freedom of religion.. so there can be left liberal, Right/ conservative liberals..
- Conservative liberalism: They are people who are right wing group of liberals.. In layman terms they feel need to protect cultures and traditions which they feel is good, less Immigration policy..
So is now clear what these ideologies are all about!!! It's depends on individuals what they feel is good..
Very well explained
