Half of Albanians (51.1%) identify themselves as leftists in ideological beliefs, from the extreme left (5.5%) to the more moderate one (14.2). With right-wing ideological convictions, 1/3 of all Albanians have been identified.
Most Albanians, whether left-wing or right-wing, are moderate in their ideological beliefs. Among left-leaning citizens, the majority are moderate (liberal left). Even among the right-wingers, most belong to the center.
The barometer at Euronews Albania asked Albanian citizens about their ideological conviction. The results show that women are more moderate than men.
Most women in Albania support the moderate left, while men are more of the extreme right.
Divided by education, the results show that the higher the level of education, the more Albanians are convinced of the center-left and the liberal left.
Most Albanians living in rural areas identify with the extreme left. Among urban dwellers, the vast majority express themselves as liberal leftists.
Northern Albania is inhabited by the majority of far-right Albanians. In the south, citizens with the convictions of the liberal left predominate, and in central Albania, those of the extreme left.
The findings are from the Barometer survey in Euronews Albania, conducted by MRB and DataCentrum at the national level with 1000 face-to-face interviews in the family between April 25 and May 7.
