New framework analyzes online ideology beyond left-right spectrum

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new conceptual framework aims to move beyond the traditional left-right political spectrum when analyzing online discourse. This framework, proposed by Kenneth Joseph Koehler, views ideology as a multi-level socio-cognitive concept network. It seeks to provide a more nuanced understanding of how specific ideological formations related to topics like race, climate, and gender manifest in online discussions. The research bridges computational social science methods with ideology theory, offering a practical operationalization for analyzing real-world data. AI
