Great illustration of the craft of thoughtful visual and structured thinking.

David McCandless and Stefanie Posavec
from Information Is Beautiful
have created this Left vs. Right concept map
to help explain the differences in political opinions.

There are two versions with different colours: a US and a World version. This is because the US and Switzerland are the only countries in the world where red = right wing and blue = left wing.
