National Conservatism

From Heterodontosaurus Balls

โ€œโ€The ๐ŸŸข nation demands a movement which has written upon its banner the internal and external national freedom that it will act as if it were the spiritual, ๐ŸŸข social and ๐ŸŸข political conscience of the nation.
โ€” ๐ŸŸข Franz von Papen

National Conservatism (NatCon) is a statist, ๐ŸŸข culturally right-wing, civically and economically variable, but usually ๐ŸŸข Authoritarian Right, and ๐ŸŸข nationalist ideology who intends to preserve traditions, national and ๐ŸŸข cultural identity as well as emphasizing the protection of national interests, mixing elements of ๐ŸŸข conservatism with nationalism. He has a strict sense of ๐ŸŸข law and order, is generally nationalistic, favors immigration regulation, and values โ€‹โ€‹both nation and family.

It's important to not confuse NatCon and ๐ŸŸข AuthCon. Despite both ideologies holding the same stances on ๐ŸŸข social and ๐ŸŸข cultural issues, NatCon is concerned about the ๐ŸŸข nation, while AuthCon is more about ๐ŸŸข state power, with the latter sometimes being anti-nationalist.

History

The seeds of National Conservatism in a modern sense go back to traditional ๐ŸŸข conservatism (think ๐ŸŸข Edmund Burke) plus 19th-century ๐ŸŸข nationalism (especially in ๐ŸŸข Europe). However, many people in ancient times had views and/or values that would be considered "National Conservative" if held up to modern standards.

In the 20th century, many conservative movements in Europe and the ๐ŸŸข US began blending ๐ŸŸข national identity, ๐ŸŸข social conservatism, and economic pragmatism. In America, NatCon existed in pieces among certain post-WWII conservatives, but wasn't named yet.

The national conservatives found success in ๐ŸŸข Armenia through their party ๐ŸŸข Republican Party of Armenia. This party ruled the country from 1999 all the way until 2018.

The formal movement called "National Conservatism" began taking shape in 2019, with the launch of the first National Conservatism Conference organized by the ๐ŸŸข Edmund Burke Foundation.

โ€œโ€Yes to the ๐ŸŸข natural family, no to the ๐ŸŸข LGBT lobby. Yes to sexual identity, no to ๐ŸŸข gender ideology. Yes to the ๐ŸŸข culture of ๐ŸŸข life, no to the abyss of ๐ŸŸข death.
โ€” ๐ŸŸข Giorgia Meloni
โ€œโ€The kind of ๐ŸŸข society that ๐ŸŸข Japan should aim at is a society in which the efforts of people are rewarded, a society in which there is no stratification into winners and losers, and a society in which ways of working, learning, and living are diverse and multi-tracked โ€” in other words, a society of opportunity where everyone has a chance to challenge again.
โ€” ๐ŸŸข Shinzo Abe
