classical liberalism: Encyclopedia - Anti-communism

Anti-communism is the opposition to communist ideology, organization, or government, on either an ideological or pragmatic basis. Anti-communism is a catch-all phrase which defines any opposition to communism as a philosophical basis for a political and social alliance. The term came to have a global meaning during the Cold War, when the powers of Western society sought to coordinate an opposition to the apparent militarist expansion of the Soviet Union. For much of the period between 1950 and 1991 anti-communism was one of the ...

classical liberalism: Encyclopedia - Anti-statism

Anti-statism refers to opposition to state intervention into personal, social or economic affairs. Anti-statist views may reject the state completely and immediately (e.g. anarchism), they may wish to reduce the size and scope of the state to a minimum (e.g. minarchism), or they may advocate a stateless society as the ultimate goal of a gradual or step-by-step evolution (e.g. Marxism). Henry David Thoreau expressed this evolutionary anti-statist view in his essay "Civil Disobedience:" I heartily accept the motto,—"Th ...

classical liberalism: Encyclopedia - American individualist anarchism

Individualist anarchism, while being advocated among some European philosophers in various forms, has a distinctive flavor in The United States of America.

"Individualism" embraces opposition to authority, and to all manner of controls over the individual, especially when exercised by the political state or "society". It is thus, directly-opposed to collectivism which advocates subordination of the individual to the will of the society or community. It is often confuse ...

classical liberalism: Encyclopedia - Communitarianism

Communitarianism as a group of related but distinct philosophies began in the late 20th century, opposing aspects of liberalism and capitalism while advocating phenomena such as civil society. Not necessarily hostile to liberalism in the contemporary American sense of the word, communitarianism rather has a different emphasis, shifting the focus of interest toward communities and societies and away from the individual. The question of priority (individual or community) often has the largest impact in the most pressing ethical question ...

classical liberalism: Encyclopedia II - Amnesty International - Criticism and rebuttal

classical liberalism: Encyclopedia II - Right-wing politics - Right-wing issues

In the 20th century, outside the United States, where capitalism was always supported by the many politicians and intellectuals, the most notable distinction between left and right was in economic policy. The right advanced capitalism, whereas the left advocated socialism (often democratic socialism) or communism. This distinction has shifted somewhat since the collapse of the Soviet Bloc, as mainstream politicians now accept limited capitalism to a large degree, but in a socialistic form in which ...
