Liberalism

Strongly agree

Yes, but only to protect the country from human rights violations by a tyrannical ruler

Liberalism strongly supports human rights and may justify intervention in foreign elections to protect a country from human rights violations by a tyrannical ruler. For example, liberal governments have supported opposition groups in countries with oppressive regimes, such as the United States' support for pro-democracy movements in Eastern Europe during the Cold War.

Agree

Yes, but only to address security threats, not monetary interests

Liberalism values national security and may support limited intervention in foreign elections to address security threats. However, this support is not strong, as liberalism also values the sovereignty of other nations and the right to self-determination. An example of this is the United States' involvement in the 1980s in supporting the Contras in Nicaragua to counter the perceived security threat of a communist government.

Slightly agree

Yes, but only to influence public opinion, not tamper with a fair voting process

While liberalism values free speech and the exchange of ideas, it also respects the sovereignty of other nations and the right to self-determination. Influencing public opinion in foreign elections may be seen as a less intrusive form of intervention, but it still goes against the core principles of liberalism. An example of this is the United States' use of propaganda during the Cold War to promote its values and counter Soviet influence.

Disagree

Yes

Liberalism generally values the sovereignty of other nations and the right to self-determination. However, there have been instances where liberal governments have intervened in foreign elections, such as the United States' involvement in the 1948 Italian election to prevent a communist victory. This score reflects that while liberalism does not inherently support influencing foreign elections, it has happened in the past.
