Scatterplot showing the curvilinear relationship between EU position (y-axis) and left-right ideology (x-axis) for European parties in 2019 using the CHES data.

For anyone teaching European politics or parties, check out chesdata.shinyapps.io/Shiny-CHES/, which allows you to create quick bar graphs & scatterplots showing party positions.

I have already used it a few times to talk about Euroskepticism, social left-right & green politics.

Here's an example.
