美國保守主義
美國保守主義（英語：American Conservatism）是美國政治思想中的主要系統之一，其特徵包括尊重美國傳統、支持猶太教-基督教價值觀、經濟自由主義、反共主義、提倡美國例外論，保護西方文化免受漸進社會主義、道德相對主義、多元文化主義和自由國際主義的威脅。自由是美國保守主義的核心價值，特別強調加強自由市場，有限制的政府，並反對高稅收、政府和工會對企業家的侵犯。美國保守主義起源於18至19世紀的古典自由主義[1][2]。歷史學家認為1790年代以來，保守主義傳統在美國政治和文化中扮演重要作用。然而有組織的保守主義運動在政治中扮演關鍵作用則是1950年代之後的事情[3][4][5]。
