It is demonstrated that this approach is capable of displaying the complexity of the data containing two sets of variables. The chapter discusses data and measurements of the Flemish voters' study. Attitudinal differences among the eight electorates are explored in the chapter. The study analyzes the distribution of the electorates with respect to 14 attitude scales expressing value orientations that are related to the old and new cleavages. The graphic presentation of correlation biplots sustains the position that the “new” value orientations have not completely replaced the “old” value orientations as cleaving forces in the political landscape in Flanders. The image is rather one of fragmentation or pluralization as the new values are added to existing orientations.
