| May 28, 2018 at 13:21 | comment | added | Flyto | This has appeared in the review queue with requests to close as "primarily opinion-based". Possibly those votes took place before the edits happened, but I'm voting to leave open because as it currently stands, this question is asking for studies based evidence. | |
| May 27, 2018 at 22:32 | comment | added | CaptainCodeman | I am the OP and while I no longer recognize the question as it's been modified so much none of my original text still exists, I appreciate the effort that has gone into editing it and am happy to leave it be :) | |
| May 27, 2018 at 14:25 | comment | added | Noah Snyder | I edited it to remove the controversial description of "liberalism" and its relationship to European political views, and instead kept it focused on the American political spectrum. | |

Removed questionable definition of "liberal" and focused on "democrat/republican" as something more easily defined and more closely related to research.

| May 24, 2018 at 1:12 | comment | added | user9646 | I would suggest removing or amending the sentence "This would perhaps be called socialist or progressive in Europe." as it is quite misleading. Many of the policies advocated by the nominal "left" in the US would be viewed as already right-leaning in most of Europe (except perhaps the UK). Certainly not "socialist". The closest would be "social democratic", but even that is a stretch. Perhaps "social liberalism". The comparison is so stretched that it is hardly useful. | |

| May 21, 2018 at 18:53 | comment | added | henning no longer feeds AI | I've edited the question to make it less opinion-based and to incorporate some of the comments. I'm voting to reopen the question, which I consider highly relevant to academia. | |

| May 21, 2018 at 17:48 | comment | added | cbeleites | @BenSandeen: The study gives rather detailed results which (not surprisingly) have a huge variance between universities. I'm not familiar enough with the academic landscape in the US to judge whether their selection of universities was representative or biased - but with what I know from Europe, their selection of fields probably distorts findings. And they are looking at registered voters (for economics, that's little more than 1/3 of the professors). Voters for one side may be more probable to register (possible bias). The study does not discuss any of these possible sources of bias. | |

| May 21, 2018 at 16:04 | comment | added | cbeleites | I'm missing any indication about STEM field political views in the study. My observation in Europe (mostly Germany) is that social sciences and humanities tend to much further left (European meaning of term) than STEM fields. In European political terminology, I mean left as opposed to liberal or conservative. | |
| May 21, 2018 at 15:48 | comment | added | henning no longer feeds AI | In order to avoid that this question is closed as opinion-based, I suggest to request specifically answers that are based on existing empirical studies rather than individual conjecture. Otherwise, we will just get a lot of answers advocating a particular world-view in a competitive spirit. | |
