beliefs claimed as elements of conservatism
|
- Society must be preserved:
- in its present form (it must not change)
- in a form consistent with "tradition"
- Society must be restored to an earlier, better condition ("Make America Great Again").
- Society cannot be changed for the better.
- This sometimes includes a reactionary belief that society should move backwards, adhering more faithfully to traditional ways that have become neglected. To a reactionary, the ideal society would follow traditional forms to the letter.
- This is often phrased as "the human condition is eternal" or "human beings cannot be perfected" (cf Kipling).
