History
• The terms "left" and "right" appeared during the French
Revolution of 1789 when members of the National
Assembly divided into supporters of the king to the
president's right and supporters of the revolution to his left.
• Right opposed the seating arrangement because they
believed that deputies should support private or general
interests but should not form factions or political parties. The
contemporary press occasionally used the terms "left" and
"right" to refer to the opposing sides.
5 May 1789: Opening of the Estates-General in Versailles
in 1789; the conservatives sat on the right
Right-wing
• Right-wing politics are political positions or activities that
view some forms of social stratification or social inequality as
either inevitable, natural, normal, or desirable, typically
defending this position on the basis of natural
law, economics or tradition.
• Right-wingers are conservative socially and believe in free
enterprise in business. They do not believe that the
Government needs to economically intervene and support the
less privileged. They insist that creation of more wealth would
take care of poverty.
Features
 Do not believe that the Government needs to economically
intervene.
 Believe that people should look after themselves.
 Believe in free enterprise in business.
 Survival of the fittest .
Following are the list of political parties (country-wise)
categorized as left/right:
USA
Left : Democratic party is generally identified as the left
Right : Republican party is generally identified as the right
UK

How to Tell Whether You're Right Wing or Left Wing
Evaluate political positions.
Those on the right may support :
• Reform of government-funded welfare programs
• Traditional or religious values, allowing those institutions to
replace government services
• Lower or flatter taxation
• International free-trade agreements
• Limiting the scope of government
• Reducing regulations on industry
• Religious liberty
Those on the left may Support:
• Social welfare programs (food stamps, homeless shelters,
unemployment benefits)
• Religious freedom and the separation of church and state
• Higher or more "progressive" taxes
• Environmentalism
• Trade protectionism
• Expansion of government into new areas
• Trade unions and industry regulations
• Social change or social justice
Look at the language they use to describe themselves.
 Leftists may describe themselves as: progressives,
communists, socialists, or liberals.
 Rightists may describe themselves as conservatives,
libertarians, laissez-faire capitalists, or classic liberals.
 Both may call their opponents fascists. Some liberals believe
Fascism is a far-right ideology, although fascists often describe
themselves as the "revolutionary center".
