Conservative Liberalism

"Not to be confused with Liberal Conservatism or Libertarian Conservatism."

Conservative Liberalism, shortened to ConLib, is an economically center-right to right-wing, civically liberal and culturally center-right to right-wing ideology which seeks to combine liberal values such as free markets, free trade, individual rights and freedom of speech with a more traditional and conservative stance on social and ethical matters. He takes influence from Classical Liberalism, although is slightly less radical and has a greater focus on positive liberty. Rather than being based on progressivism, ConLib's ideology combines liberalism with elements of classical philosophy (the common good, natural rights etc.), Christianity (natural law, social nature of man etc.) and ancient institutions (common law, social hierarchies etc.).

Some of the most notable figures within the Conservative Liberalism were philosophers like Edmund Burke and Alexis De Tocqueville who had believed in Classically Liberal ideas like free trade and conservative outlooks on  fiscal, ethical and social issues.

Conservative Liberals also carry Civically Nationalist views like free movement on immigration (but against open borders and illegal immigration)

Conservative Liberalism & Liberal Conservatism
Despite the confusing distinction and similarities with Liberal Conservatism they differ  in the sense that Liberal Conservatives tend to be a more moderate in most positions and statists while Conservative Liberals are slightly more radical and usually tends to be mildly anti-statis as they wish to preserve traditional moral values and culture while making  reforms occasionally when seen fit, thus varying culturally center-right to right wing,also liberal conservatism is correlated to modern liberalism and coservastism and Conservative liberalism is correlated with Classical liberalism and Conservatism.

The places they have similarity is their origin and the goal they have both ideas are inspired by the philosopher Edmund Burke where they wanted to incorporate a free market in which people can participate and create wealth free from bureaucratic interference.
