Conservative Movement

The conservative movement refers to a political and social ideological trend that emphasizes the preservation of traditional values, limited government, individual liberties, free markets, and a strong national defense. It often advocates for fiscal responsibility, lower taxes, and minimal regulation of businesses, while being skeptical of rapid social change. In the United States, this movement gained prominence in the mid-20th century, particularly with the rise of figures like Barry Goldwater and Ronald Reagan, shaping policies and influencing the Republican Party's platform. Conservatism can vary widely in approaches and beliefs, but its core principles remain consistent.
