3-axis political compass?[edit]

Many of you are probably familiar with the Political Compass, which measures and classifies political views by 2 parameters; what I want to ask is, are there political compasses which measure 3 parameters -- left vs. right (or, to be more precise, socialist vs. capitalist), libertarian vs. authoritarian, and open vs. closed (or, for those not familiar with this latter terminology, cosmopolitan vs. nationalist)? 2601:646:8E01:7E0B:D59A:538D:811D:EC99 (talk) 05:03, 26 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The more comprehensive article Political spectrum gives at least one visual diagram with three axes. --Jayron32 10:50, 26 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
