Discover your right-wing archetype profile
A right-wing archetype political quiz
Earlier this year I wrote about how the political right was not homogeneous, but was rather comprised of five archetypes - or ‘homunculi’ - different combinations of which could be dominant in any given person, or political party, on the right. I termed these The Free Marketeer, The Libertarian, The Social Conservative, The Traditionalist and the Nativist.
Thanks to a friend, Wakefield Morys-Carter1, this model has now been turned into a Political Compass-style internet quiz - which you can take to find out which right-wing archetypes (if any!) you align with.
The quiz consists of 50 multiple choice questions, each of which will present a proposition to which you have to say whether you agree or disagree. ‘Not sure’ is also always an option.
At the end of the quiz you will be presented with a star chart (you can see mine below!) that set out your archetype affinities, as well as a link to take you to a page where you can read more about the archetypes.
No information will be used to identify any participant. There is an optional demographic page at the end, which we will use to see if there are any interesting patterns in the data2 - however, this can be freely skipped if desired to get to the results.
As this is specifically a quiz about right-wing archetypes, it is likely to be of most interest to those on the political right or centre - but even left-wingers may find in themselves a surprising affinity to one or more of the archetypes!
Once taken, please do feel free to share your results - and this quiz - on social media or elsewhere.
Who did all the programming and also helped with the questions.
For example, are there systematic differences between people who intend to vote for the Conservatives and Reform?
Interesting test. I was 60% traditionalist, 75% marketeer, while 5% libertarian, 20% nativist, and 20% social conservative.
So I guess by today's standards not very right wing?
Truth is I love British heritage and believe we have something special, but I have a lot of contempt for the British population in general as being miserable, petty and spiteful people. If I were not English I would probably be a 'sovereign individual' type of person and thus much more libertarian.
