A cross-cutting worldview: redistribution, cultural progressivism, civil liberties, ecology, Haidt's Moral Foundations Theory (2012). To spot the areas where alignment with a partner avoids recurring arguments over big life decisions.
The dimensions explored
Relationship to equality, redistribution, tradition vs. progressivism. These convictions shape practical decisions (where to live, how to raise children).
The place of religion in daily life and child-rearing. A strong mismatch is often underestimated early in a relationship.
A sense of ecological responsibility, relationship to consumption. Possible divergences over food, transport and housing choices.
Haidt's six foundations: Care, Fairness, Loyalty, Authority, Purity, Liberty. They explain why two people can have very different moral reactions.
When worldviews diverge
Early in a relationship, we avoid the "touchy subjects". They resurface during big decisions: where to raise children, in which culture, with which family rules. A very religious partner with an atheist partner can work — if the topic has been explicitly discussed, not avoided.

Frequently asked questions
Can you have a lasting relationship with opposite political views?
Increasingly difficult according to recent studies, because political opinions are tied to deep identity. But tolerance for divergence remains the real deciding factor.
Do these convictions change over time?
Yes, often towards more moderation with age. Major experiences can radically transform convictions.
Should you talk about it from the start?
Before the big decisions (moving in, children). Disagreements over child-rearing and religion are among the most frequent causes of break-up.
