What's it about?

Conservatism is a political philosophy that believes in placing traditional values and ideas at the forefront, and when necessary, making small, gradual changes instead of drastic ones. Typically associated with right-wing politics, conservatism actually encompasses a wide range of views and expresses a very natural human hesitance in the face of drastic change. In this collection, you'll peer into the origin and roots of conservatism, how it lay the foundations for the Reagan revolution of the 80's in the US, and examines cases for the importance in upholding a free market. You'll also get a glimpse into conservative ideologies of today and see how it has developed and changed over time.
