The 7 Principles of Conservatism

The enduring values that guide conservative thought and governance.

01

Individual Liberty

The freedom of the individual is paramount. Government exists to protect rights, not to grant or restrict them arbitrarily.

02

Limited Government

Government should be as small as necessary. Power concentrated in the state is a threat to the freedom of citizens.

03

Rule of Law

All people β€” including those in power β€” are subject to the law. Equal justice under a stable, predictable legal order is foundational.

04

Personal Responsibility

Individuals are accountable for their own choices. A culture of dependency undermines human dignity and societal resilience.

05

Free Markets

Voluntary exchange and competition allocate resources better than central planning. Economic freedom and political freedom are inseparable.

06

Ordered Society

A stable, functioning society requires shared institutions, customs, and moral norms built over generations β€” not dismantled overnight.

07

National Sovereignty

Nations have the right and duty to govern themselves, secure their borders, and act in their citizens' interests on the world stage.
