Do you like democracy, or do you prefer aristocracy? Oligarchy? Plutocracy? “The political terms Right and Left were coined during the French Revolution, and were a reference to where people sat in the French parliament. Those who sat to the right of the presidents chair were broadly supportive of the institutions of Ancien Régime. The original right in France was composed of those supporting hierarchy, tradition, and clericalism. The Right invoked natural law and divine law to explain the normality of social inequalities. Use of the expression le droit (the right) became more prominent in France after the restoration of its monarchy in 1815, when it was applied to the Ultra-royalists.” en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right-wing_politics wordiq/definition/Left-Right_politics wordiq/definition/Right-wing_politics hotword.dictionary/leftright/ whorulesamerica.net/change/left_and_right.html www2.ucsc.edu/whorulesamerica/change/left_and_right.html dictionary.reference/browse/radical+left en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far_left en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_radicalism
