Reactionary Liberalism

Reactionary Liberalism is a political mindset that seeks to uphold principles of individual freedom and liberal ideals while resisting or opposing more radical or revolutionary changes that threaten those values. It advocates for preserving existing liberal institutions and norms, emphasizing gradual reform over abrupt transformation. Essentially, reactionary liberals value personal liberty, free markets, and democratic laws but are cautious about rapid shifts or radical ideologies that could undermine the stability and foundations of liberal democracy. They aim to protect traditional liberal principles from perceived threats posed by more extreme or revolutionary movements.
