| Based on the nature of your answers, the test concludes that you are more aligned with the ideology of Social Liberalism. |
 Social liberalism is a type of liberalism that advocates (in contrast to neoliberalism) for government intervention in economic processes. It is closely related to social democracy. Unlike classical liberalism, which viewed the market as a self-regulating entity and negatively viewed the possibility of regulating economic and social relations, social liberals believe that in order to implement the main principle of liberalism in practice – ensuring the individual's right to self-determination and self-realization – it is not always sufficient to rely solely on their own efforts. Equalizing starting opportunities is impossible without the participation of the state, and it is the state that must ensure the redistribution of a portion of the social product in favor of the socially vulnerable members of society, providing them with support and thereby contributing to the harmonization of social relations and the strengthening of social and political stability. However, unlike various types of socialist ideology, social liberals are committed to a capitalist type of economy. |

This is a political regime characterized by extremely broad (total) control of the state over all aspects of society. The goal of such control over the economy and society is to organize them according to a single plan. Under a totalitarian regime, the entire population of the state is mobilized to support the government (ruling party) and its ideology, while the priority of public interests over private ones is declared. Totalitarian regimes are often criticized by the international community.
Social democracy took root in European politics after World War I. Democratic socialist parties have actively participated and continue to participate in the governments of Sweden, Finland, West Germany and unified Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Spain, Portugal, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands, Norway, and some other countries, such as post-communist Hungary, Poland, and Bulgaria. These parties use socialist ideology, and in economics, they advocate for the creation of a "welfare state" based on the corresponding Keynesian theory. Increasing pensions and social benefits is their achievement. Social democracy is often confused with "democratic socialism," but in essence, these are completely different political movements. Social democracy is largely very similar to Social Liberalism, but it places greater emphasis not on the economic market, but on ensuring social protection for vulnerable segments of the population.
According to Marxist theory, communism is a socio-economic formation that replaces capitalism, free from class exploitation, and based on public ownership of the means of production. The second, higher phase of this formation is a classless society, the principle of which is "from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs." Vladimir Ilyich Lenin stated that the first (transitional) phase of communist society should be a social structure – a proletarian state as a form of organization of political power of the working class, in which all the main means of production (land, subsoil, factories with their equipment, finance, etc.) are the property of this state (the country is one large Factory). Unfortunately, despite all the promises of party leaders, communism in its pure form was not built in the USSR.
