Read the article by Timothy Ferris, “Conservative is not opposite Liberal, That’s Totalitarianism”. Using the book and the internet, identify a one-dimensional political spectrum. (Ferris article PDF version)
Draw a one-dimensional political spectrum and include the following: Libertarians, Democrats, Republicans, Green Party, Tea Party/Reform Party, Progressives/Liberals, Conservatives, Fascists, Communists, and Socialists.
Next, Draw a two-dimensional political spectrum (like Ferris) and label the same parties as above on this spectrum.
Finally, explain why you put the political parties where you did on the spectra, and compare and contrast your findings (full essay).
