}}
Conservatism is a way of looking at social reality in an essentialist and teleological way, assuming the existence of an order and a natural law knowable by reason, revelation, or tradition. Conservatives emphasize duty, virtue, and human nature as well as seek to maintain the social order and their country's traditional values, they usually seek to preserve a range of institutions like
religion with the aim of emphasizing social stability and continuity. but with time, this thinking was alienated from politics. Overall, conservatism is an economically and civically variable,
culturally right ideology although a few conservatives ideologies are
culturally center.
Variants
Atheist Conservatism
Atheist Conservatism is a variant of conservatism that relies on secular arguments for upholding traditional societal standards, and believes that religions aren't needed to uphold the stability of society. This kind of conservatism is seen with Cultural Christians.
Religious Conservatism
Religious Conservatism principally applies the teachings of particular religions to politics: sometimes by merely proclaiming the value of those teachings; at other times, by having those teachings influence laws.
History
The first established use of the term "conservatism" in a political context originated in 1818 with François-René de Chateaubriand. Conservatism has since been used to describe a wide range of views that aim to maintain certain traditional views, but no single set of policies is associated with the term.
United States ![](/images/Conserv.png)
The meaning of "conservatism" in the United States is quite different in comparison with what people from other parts of the world consider conservatism; when they talk about conservatism they usually refer to Liberalism or
Neoliberalism. Since the 1950s, conservatism in the United States has been chiefly associated with the Republican Party. However, during the era of segregation, many Southern Democrats were the ones considered conservatives.
The characteristics defining conservatism in the United States include support for the traditional family,
law and order,
the right to bear arms,
Christian values,
anti-socialism, and defense of "Western civilization, its traditions, and way of life". About major economic policies in general that they defend are, along with
Libertarians, favor, low taxes, limited regulation, and free enterprise, although most conservatives in the US are also
Keynesian, which are the economic policies that mostly differentiate them from most Libertarians. Some of them also see
religion as an important part of Western Civilization and are opposed to
secularism, and separation of the church and the state.
They are also considered Neoconservatives and foreign interventionists, assimilationists, and at some points also
imperialists, they believe in strong morals and are in favor of intervening in other places that do not align with these values. Another part of American conservatism is trying to stop the spread of
Socialism.
Other modern GOP positions include deregulation and opposition to environmentalism. Some conservatives, such as
paleoconservatives,
libertarian conservatives, and
paleolibertarians advocate for a
non-interventionist foreign policy.
Economic Liberalism and social conservatism are major principles of the Republican Party, but they are not in opposition to bail-outs and, in general, certain interventionism.
Germany ![](/images/CDU_Party.png)

In Germany, Conservatism grew alongside Nationalism, resulting in Germany's victory over France in the Franco-Prussian War, the formation of the United German Empire in 1871, and Otto von Bismarck's simultaneous rise in the European political stage.
With the rise of Nazism in 1933,
agrarian movements faded away, replaced by a more command-based economy and forced social integration. Although Adolf Hitler was able to win the support of many German industrialists, prominent
traditionalists opposed his policies of euthanasia, genocide, and attacks on organized religion.
More recently, the work of the conservative Christian Democratic Union leader and Chancellor Helmut Kohl has helped bring about German reunification and closer European integration in the form of the Maastricht Treaty.
Today, German conservatism is often linked to politicians such as
Angela Merkel. Who can be defined by her marked attempts to save the common European currency (Euro) from devaluation and other certainly important financial issues.
France ![](/images/French_Republican_Party.png)
Another form of conservatism developed in France in parallel to conservatism in Britain. It was influenced by Counter-Enlightenment works by men such as Joseph de Maistre and Louis de Bonald. Many continentals or traditionalist conservatives do not support the separation of church and state, with most supporting state recognition of and cooperation with the
Catholic Church, such as had existed in France before the Revolution.
They also added patriotism, and
Nationalism to the list of traditional values they support. Conservatives were the first to embrace Nationalism and the Revolution in France, contemporary conservatism in France is deeply influenced by Gaullism and one of his main representatives is the ex-president Nikolas Sarkozy and his party.
Spain ![](/images/SpaPP.png)
The People's Party was created in January 1989 by a "refoundation" of the People's Alliance (AP).
This federation of conservative parties was founded in 1976 by former personalities of the Franco regime who had decided not to join the Union of the Democratic Center (UCD). Its main leader is the former Francoist minister Manuel Fraga.
The AP entered into a deep crisis after its 1987 congress, which followed the failure of the Popular Coalition in the June 1986 elections and the distribution of Fraga. The latter finally decides to take over the leadership of the party and to ensure a profound renovation. The January 1989 congress, therefore, marked the birth of the People's Party, which broadened its ideological base to the ideals of Economic liberalism and
Christian democracy. It then absorbed the Liberal Party (PL) and the Christian Democracy (DC), becoming the hegemonic party of the center-right and the right in Spain.
On September 4, the PP invests by the decision of Fraga the president of the Junta of Castile, and León José María Aznar leader for the anticipated general elections of the following month, after having dismissed Isabel Tocino and Marcelino Oreja. During the ballot, Aznar failed to break the glass ceiling which had blocked the Spanish right since 1982 with 25.8% of the vote and 107 deputies out of 350. A new congress, convened in April 1990, carried Aznar to the presidency of the Party popular, while Manuel Fraga received the title of founding president.
Russia ![](/images/United_Russia.png)
Under Vladimir Putin, the dominant leader since 1999, Russia has promoted explicitly conservative policies in social, cultural, and political matters, both at home and abroad but has attacked multiple times economic
Liberalism, which differentiates them from other conservatives. Putinist conservatism is unique in some respects as it supports
economic intervention with a mixed economy, with strong
nationalist sentiment and social conservatism, opposing largely most of the
Libertarians' ideals. Unlike most western conservatives, Putin's version promotes a
Kleptocratic form of government over a democratic one, is
Elitist and mostly opposed to populism.
United Kingdom ![](/images/Con-t.png)
Conservatism in the United Kingdom is similar to its counterparts in other Western nations, but has a distinct tradition and has varied over time.
During and after World War II, the Conservative Party made concessions to Democratic Socialist's policies of the left. The basis of the post-war consensus was the Beveridge Report. Between 1945 and 1970 (consensus years) unemployment averaged less than 3% as "full employment" was the policy of both Conservative and Labour governments. The post-war consensus included a belief in
Keynesian economics, a mixed economy with the nationalization of major industries, the establishment of the National Health Service, and the establishment of a modern welfare state in Britain.
However, in the 1980s, under the leadership of Margaret Thatcher, and the influence of Keith Joseph, there was a dramatic shift in the ideological direction of British conservatism, with a movement towards, what are considered free-market economic policies and reforms.
In efforts to rebrand and increase the party's appeal, following three consecutive defeats in the general elections, both leaders have adopted policies that align with more moderate views. This has included a "greener" environmental and energy stance, and the adoption of some socially modernist views, such as acceptance of
same-sex marriage. However, these policies have been accompanied by
fiscal conservatism, in which they have maintained a hard stance on bringing down the deficit, and embarked upon a program of economic austerity.

Notes
- ↑ Depends mainly on the cultural context; importance of free-market economics and capitalism within it.
- ↑ Context dependant: in countries with long-established constitutions, the rule of law tends to be of greater importance than those with short-lived one's.
- ↑ Sleaze and cronyism is currently a huge problem within the Conservative party, with the Boris Johnson government suffering significantly from allegations of alleged corruption.
- ↑ Some Canadian Conservatives tend to be more moderate on certain questions, including social views, while advocating economic liberalism.
