Three Telos Model: Difference between revisions

Line 1:

The '''Three Telos Model''' or "Triangle Political Map" or "Political Trichotomy" is a explanatory model of political ideology. It's a way to to describe political beliefs based on the core axiom of the philosophy called a telos~~. There are some similarities in approach to [[W:Theory of Basic Human Values | Schwartz's Theory of Basic Human Values]]~~. The Three Telos Model is based on the concept of a [[w:ternary plot | ternary plot]] where the different underlying philosophies can be mixed but must sum up to the totality of the of the persons ideological position. This is a departure from the standard cartesian spaces such as the two-dimensional [[political spectrum]].

The '''Three Telos Model''' or "Triangle Political Map" or "Political Trichotomy" is a explanatory model of political ideology. It's a way to describe political beliefs based on the core axiom of the philosophy called a telos. The Three Telos Model is based on the concept of a [[w:ternary plot | ternary plot]] where the different underlying philosophies can be mixed but must sum up to the totality of the of the persons ideological position. This is a departure from the standard cartesian spaces such as the two-dimensional [[political spectrum]].

It can be thought of as being [[W: M-theory#Dualities | dual]] to [https://psychology.wikia.org/wiki/Cultural_theory_of_risk Grid-Group Cultural Theory] in the sense that each can be transformed in some way so that it ends up looking just like the other theory. There are some similarities in approach to [[W:Theory of Basic Human Values | Schwartz's Theory of Basic Human Values]].

The core concept is that there are three teloses or axiomatic end goals which are fundamentally incompatible with each other. Favoring any one telos comes at the expense of another. In this way the model is an attempt to show how differing balances of core values result in different ideological positions.
