Interactive Idea

With our interactive we plan to have users select a state of their choosing and allow them to explore different authoritarianism variables within that state. These variables could be selected from a list; such variables could include “nationalism”, “party preference”, etc. Each variable could include a short description and showcase what questions form the variable. For instance a question referring to nationalism may be- “Better if rest of world more like America”. By selecting different variables the user can identify trends. We will also aim to have the user isolate a specific year thus showcasing the trends in a given state at any time frame, excluding years we don’t have data for.
