What exactly is Anarcho-Capitalism, in plain English? This term makes no sense to me.

Quote:
What's the difference between libertarianism, classical liberalsim and neolibertarianism in English?
Libertarianism is usually used to mean minarchism, which favors a "night watchman state" restricted to courts, law enforcement, national defense, and roads. Neolibertarianism is like libertarianism, but favors a more aggressive foreign policy. Classical liberalism is a more pragmatic pro-liberty ideology - I'm a classical liberal.
Quote:
What exactly is Anarcho-Capitalism, in plain English?
The replacement of the state by private courts, private security forces, and private law.

Neoliberalism is kinda a bad word in Sweden, used by people who were active socialists during the 70:s against the incredibly evil people who question the wellfare state consensus. I publicly call myself a classic liberal or libertarian IRL and have been in a debate with myself as to which one of those two words I should use. I have leaned towards "libertarianism" since it sounds less archaic and more international. But with your defintions, classical liberal is more accurate as I am slightly more pragmatic to public spending than minarchists.

As far as I can tell, "neoliberalism" means nothing more than "an insult for those who aren't socialists".

quite hard questions.

Quote:
Radicalism 88.5
Socialism 75
Tenderness 56.25


These scores indicate that you are a progressive; this is the political profile one might associate with a university professor. It appears that you are skeptical towards religion, and have a pragmatic attitude towards humanity in general.

Your attitudes towards economics appear socialist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as left-wing.

To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, an egalitarian with several strong opinions.

This concludes our analysis; we hope you found your results accurate, useful, and interesting.

Green anarchism (0%)  


The Social Attitude Test:
Quote:
Radicalism 30.75
Socialism 25
Tenderness 68.75

These scores indicate that you are a tender-minded moderate conservative; this is the political profile one might associate with a sincere clergyman. It appears that you are trusting of religion, and have a compassionately humanistic attitude towards humanity in general.

Your attitudes towards economics appear capitalist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as right-wing.

To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, an idealist with few strong opinions.


Kinda sums me up mildly, though I'm actually more center than these results suggest. There are a lot of questions that I answered "Neutral" to since I don't fully agree or disagree with some things such as "Is Free Trade Good or Bad". In fact it's both.

I got a boring result...

Radicalism 77.5
Socialism 50
Tenderness 43.75


These scores indicate that you are a moderate progressive; this is the political profile one might associate with a university professor. It appears that you are skeptical towards religion, and have a pragmatic attitude towards humanity in general.

Your attitudes towards economics appear neither committedly capitalist nor socialist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as a political centrist.

To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, a pragmatist with few strong opinions.

Economic Left/Right: -8.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.59

Social Attitude Test said:

Radicalism 77.5
Socialism 93.75

These scores indicate that you are a tender-minded moderate progressive; this is the political profile one might associate with an animal rights activist. It appears that you are moderate towards religion, and have a balanced attitude towards humanity in general.

Your attitudes towards economics appear communist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as left-wing.

To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, an egalitarian with few strong opinions.



These tests are kind of fun. Just amused by this question:

Test on the previous page:
Quote:
Progressivism 55
Socialism 68.75
Tenderness 37.5

Your test scores indicate that you are a tough-minded cultural centrist; this is the political profile one might associate with a jaded materialist. It appears that you are skeptical towards religion, and have a pragmatic attitude towards humanity in general.

Your attitudes towards economics appear socialist, and combined with your social attitudes this creates the picture of someone who would generally be described as a humanist.

To round out the picture you appear to be, political preference aside, a considerate realistic centrist with few strong convictions.

This concludes our analysis; we hope you found your results accurate, useful, and interesting.


And the second one, didn't really like this due to the "always" questions.

Socialist Authoritarian Humanist Liberal- most closed minded people would call that an oxymoron.
