Research Abstract |
We reached following conclusions. First of all the neo-conservatism had its origin in the post-war society of the United States of America. Thus it had clear discontinuity with the aristocratic tradition of the European conservatism after the French Revolution. The neo-conservatism of American origin had a relevant characteristic of protecting private properties gained by the new rich. The freedom of economic activities was considered as its imperative. The monetarism became its "official" economy. The "Small Government" was re-proposed as its political goal. On the other hand the Christianity was re-discovered as its traditional norm of values. But in realty the anti-communism offered common emotional ties to the heterogeneous groups gathered into the neo-conservatism. Center-right governments in the European Union have fundamentally accepted the neo-conservatism of American origin. But we think it's extremely difficult for them to keep it without innovating it drastically because of external constraints imposed by the ongoing European integration.
