Sumario:[EN] Ideological polarization measures the distances between the political identifications and opinions of different groups of citizens. Spain today shows patterns of ideological polarization similar to other European countries. This type of polarization has increased steadily since the beginning of the century and two clear ideological blocs have been configured that differ in the positioning of their potential voters on most of the issues that make up the political debate. From a longitudinal perspective, polarization on economic issues seems to have increased much more than polarization on moral issues. The latter may even have decreased in the last two decades. We could conclude that, if the main differences are established on the economic axis, the possibility of reaching agreements should be closer than if differences on moral issues are exacerbated. Discussions on taxation, redistribution, even immigration management, may be easier to address than moral issues related to sexual identities or abortion, where positions respond more to principles and identities
