    Social Authoritarianism


    Social Authoritarianism is an economically center-left, authoritarian, and culturally variable ideology that advocates a strictly regulated capitalist economy with a strong welfare state and (sometimes) trade unions, but, unlike Socdem.png Social Democracy, has little to no democracy. It believes Welf.png welfare must be implented though a Sec.png strong state to work in the long run. And to combat political oppoments too.

    Variants

    DemSocAuth.png Social Authoritarian Democracy

    Social Authoritarian Democracy is similar in many ways to Socdem.png social democracy but differs in that they support a constitution that gives wide ranging powers to the president, allowing them to ignore the legislature if they desire, often to allow social and economic progress to be ushered in much faster without worries of corruption holding up "necessary" reforms. It can also be seen as the only true example of a benevolent dictatorship. Two notable examples are 3princ.png Tridemism and Kemal.png Kemalism.

    PolLab.png Police Labourism

    Police Labourism is an ideology that advocates for universal healthcare, empowering unions, government regulation to protect small businesses, workers and consumers and, often, anti-communism. The same causes as Socdem.png SocDem with an exception to their view on the police, supporting expanding police power, more police on the streets and viewing crime as one of the key issues for any government to solve.

    Authsoccap.png Capitalist Perspective

    Several authoritarian governments supported Soccap.png Social Capitalism. They favored the implementation of a social market economy or HumanisticCapitalism.png humanistic capitalism within the context of a strong Statist.png central government. In many cases they could be considered Authcap.png authoritarian capitalists who are more Regulationism.png interventionist and Welf.png welfarist than their more traditional free-market/laissez-faire counterparts. Examples of this include Karimov.png Islam Karimov of Cball-Uzbekistan.png Uzbekistan and Hujintao.png Hu Jintao of Cball-China.png China.

    LibSocAuth.png Liberal Perspective

    Some Soclib.png social liberals embraced authoritarian means to implementing their policies. Although more market-based than traditional Socdem.png social democrats, they still favor significant Regulationism.png government intervention into the economy and Welf.png safety nets to maximize human potential (e.g., implementing the minimum wage to help SyndieSam.png low-wage workers in the absence of competition); some even embraced Corptism.png corporatism or class collaboration, although a few social liberal movements preferred safety nets over SyndieSam.png trade unions. Despite being a Republicanismpix.png democratic republic, Cball-US.png US presidents Woodrow.png Woodrow Wilson, FDRism-alt.png Franklin D. Roosevelt, Truman.png Harry S. Truman, and Lyndon B. Johnson.png Lyndon B. Johnson are often considered authoritarian for promoting Statist.png centralization, PolState.png empowering federal agencies, crackdowns on dissent (e.g., Soc.png socialists and Pacifist.png anti-war protesters), and in some cases suppression of civil rights.

    LeftSocauth.png Socialist Perspective

    Some social authoritarians want an heavily regulated and state-controlled economy that isn't capitalistic, usually believing in Soc.png socialism and even Commie.png communism. Examples include JosipBrozTito.png Josip Broz Tito in Cball-Yugoslavia.png Yugoslavia, RaulCastro.png Raúl Castro in Cball-Cuba.png Cuba, Gaddaficap.png Muammar Gaddafi in Gadda.png Libya, and FLNStratoDictature.png Houari Boumédiene in Cball-Algeria.png Algeria.

    Auth3Way.png Third Way Perspective

    Many authoritarian regimes followed 3way.png Third Way economics, which in itself is a synthesis of Neoliberal-icon.png neoliberal and Soclib.png socially liberal/Socdem.png socially democratic economic policies. Authoritarian regimes which embrace the Third Way tend to implement deregulation, privatization, private-public partnerships, and Welf.png anti-poverty measures. Two notable example of this are Shevardnadze.png Eduard Shevardnadze in Cball-Georgia.png Georgia and Thaksin.png Thaksin Shinawatra in Thailand.png Thailand. It can be seen as a more pro-welfare version of Statlib.png State Liberalism

    Cball-Brazil.png Brazil Getulism.png Geisel.png

    Getulism.png Getulism

    Getulism was a CentreAuthLeft.png center-authoritarian left, Paternalism.png strongly paternalist, Pop.png populist, and Nation.png nationalist ideology based on the ideas of Vargas.png Getúlio Vargas (1882-1954), who ruled Brazil as a dictator from 1930 to 1945, and as an elected official from 1951 to 1954. It was heavily inspired by Castilhismo, the ideology of the former governor of Rio Grande do Sul Positivism.png Júlio de Castilhos (1860-1903), which held three basic tenets:

    • Rulers must be choosed based on their moral purity and not their popularity;
    • Partisan disputes must be eliminated and instead, virtue should be valorized;
    • The ruler should "regenerate society", and the State should direct its transformation and modernization.

    Getulism was also inspired by Mussolini.png Benito Mussolini's fascism during Vargas' time as a dictator, but shifted further to the left after WW2, becoming prominent in the Brazilian Labour Party. Getúlio believed in the creation of a strong centralized state led by a paternalistic figure, whose duty was to "morally regenerate society" through political reforms meant to uphold the well-being of the people. His policies featured an exacerbated populism centered around his image.

    He saw the role of the State as an institution meant to guide the population toward a virtuous, modern society, using its authority and the collective interests to achieve general welfare. Under modernist principles, national prosperity was also an important objective, which should be achieved through the Indust.png development of the industry. Getúlio also believed that SyndieSam.png labourism was an essential step towards a just society and that the benefit of the people through public services was a social obligation for those in power. His government has led to the first major advancements in labour rights in Brazilian history.

    • SocialismoMoreno.png Socialismo Moreno (English: "Dark-Skinned Socialism") is the political doctrine adopted by Getúlio Vargas' followers and by the BrazilPDT.png Democratic Labour Party since the 1950s, after his death. It is the heir of the Getulist legacy in Brazil; as such, it takes a lot from his ideas, like nationalism, developmentalism, Regulationism.png economic interventionism, and labour rights, with some small cliques seeing it instead as Dsa.png democratic socialism adapted to the Brazilian reality.

    Geisel.png Geiselism

    Geiselism is the ideology of the 29th president of Brazil, Ernesto Geisel. He assumed the presidency in 1974 during the Brazilian military dictatorship. His government caught the country in the middle of the 1973 oil crisis, but it still implemented state funding on social measures. Even though he helped to loosen authoritarianism, he still approved the persecution of the Commie.pngStratoHelm.png opposition.

His government was marked by labor reforms, the creation of state-owned companies and banks, LandReform.png land reform and a base price for essential commodities. In March 1936, Franco banned all political parties and proclaimed that the February revolution will follow the totalitarian regimes of Europe.

    Cball-Peru.png Peru JuanVelasco.pngApra.png

    Juan Velasco Thought (officially known as "Peruanismo" (Peruvianism) during Juan Velasco's military government) is a Soc.png left-wing ideology originally from Cball-Peru.png Peru, based on the thought of former Peruvian president Juan Velasco Alvarado (1910-1977), during the first phase (1968-1975) of the military dictatorship called "Revolutionary Government of the Armed Forces" (1968-1980). This ideology arises with the October 3rd 1968 coup d'etat in Peru, ruling until August 29 1975, when another coup was done making Francisco Morales Bermúdez the de facto Peruvian president.

    It believes in 3P.png a political-economic system which would not be Cap.png capitalist neither ML.png communist, while often accused of de facto being pro-Soviet and Soc.png socialist-leaning; it's developmentalist and highly nationalist, with a strong state control over property and the creation of self-managed socialist cooperatives. Culturally, it promotes Cball-Peru.png Peruvian culture even sometimes rejecting western culture. It's authoritarian and Strato-Antifurry.png militaristic, rejecting both armed revolutions and Dem.png multi-party elections; while it rejected political parties as a ruling methog, de facto it established a one-party state with DemML.png SINAMOS (Sistema Nacional de Apoyo a la Movilización Social, "National System of Support for Social Mobilisation" in English) being de facto ruling party (while it was government agency rather than a proper political party). In foreign policy, it was neutral in the Cold War (while again de facto being somewhat pro-Soviet in foreign policy), and it supported other anti-imperialist movements in Latin America (like Allende.png Allende's Chile, Cball-Panama.png Torrijos' Panama, etc)

    • Thaksin.png Thaksin Shinawatra is a Thai Plutocrat.png billionaire, the founder of mobile phone operator Advanced info service and IT and telecommunications conglomerate Shin Corporation, a former police officer, the founder of Thai Rak Thai Party (TRT), who served as the Prime Minister of Thailand.png Thailand from 2001 to 2006. Thaksin ran on a populist platform and during his tenure launched programs to reduce poverty, expand infrastructure, promote small and medium-sized enterprises, and extend universal healthcare coverage.

    Thaksin and his government did however show authoritarian tendencies on multiple occasions. He declared a "war on drugs" in which more than 2,500 people were killed and took a strong-arm approach against the Sep.png separatist insurgency in the Muslim 2.png Muslim southern provinces. Thaksin also got his country involved in the Iraq War following the Cball-US.png US-led invasion of Cball-Iraq.png Iraq. Thailand contributed 423 non-combat troops in August 2003 to nation-building and medical assistance in post-Saddam Iraq. Troops of the Royal Thai Army were attacked in the 2003 Karbala bombings, which killed two soldiers and wounded five others. However, the Thai mission in Iraq was considered an overall success, and Thailand withdrew its forces in August 2004. The mission was considered the main reason the United States decided to designate Thailand as a major non-NATO ally in 2003.

    A citizens' movement against Thaksin, called the People's Alliance for Democracy or YellowShirts(Thailand).png "Yellow Shirts", launched mass protests, accusing him of Klep.png corruption, abuse of power, and Auto.png autocratic tendencies.

    Thaksin was overthrown in a military coup on 19 September 2006 and was barred from all political activity. He has continued to influence Thai politics from abroad through the Pheu Thai Party, as well as the United Front for Democracy Against Dictatorship or the "Red Shirt" movement which challenges the power of the StratoDictature-Antifurry.png Military Dictatorship and aims for greater democracy and justice in Thai politics. His younger sister Yingluck.png Yingluck Shinawatra was the prime minister of Thailand from 2011 to 2014 until she too was ousted in a military coup.

    • BoXilai.png Bo Xilai is a Chinese former politician who was convicted on bribery and embezzlement charges. Bo Xilai served as a member of the Politburo of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and Communist Party Secretary of Chongqing from 2007 until his arrest in 2012.

    As Communist Party Secretary of Chongqing, Bo Xilai initiated a campaign against organized crime, increased spending on welfare programs, maintained consistent double-digit percentage GDP growth, and campaigned to revive Cultural Revolution-era "red culture". Bo's promotion of egalitarian values and the achievements of his Chongqing model made him the champion of the Chinese New Left, composed of both Maoists and social democrats disillusioned with the country's market-based economic reforms and increasing economic inequality.

    From 2009 to 2011 Bo Xilai and Police Chief Wang Lijun oversaw the "Chongqing Gang Trials" (or "Dahei Campaign") in which a total of 4,781 suspects were arrested, including 19 suspected crime bosses, hundreds of triad members, and a number of allegedly corrupt police, government, and Communist party officials. The Chongqing Gang Trials were heavily criticized for their lack of due process and for the arrests of innocents for political gain and suppression of dissent.

    As part of Bo Xilai and Wang Lijun's war on crime to maintain social and political stability in Chongqing, a major electronic surveillance operation that involved wiretaps, eavesdropping, and monitoring of internet communications was initiated with the help of Fang Binxing, the father of the Great Firewall. The eavesdropping operations did not only target local criminals, but also the communications of top Chinese leaders, including those of the CPC General Secretary Hu Jintao, as Bo Xilai tried to monitor nearly all central leaders who had visited Chongqing to better understand what they thought of him as he was set on being promoted to the Politburo Standing Committee of the Chinese Communist Party.

    Bo Xilai's political fortunes would come to an abrupt end following the Wang Lijun incident, in which his top lieutenant sought asylum at the American consulate in Chengdu with information about the involvement of Bo Xilai and his wife Gu Kailai in the murder of British businessman Neil Heywood who had financial ties to the couple. In the fallout of the Wang Lijun Incident, Bo was removed as the CPC Committee secretary of Chongqing and was expelled from the Communist Party. In 2013, Bo was found guilty of corruption, and embezzlement, and was stripped of all his assets, and sentenced to life imprisonment at Qincheng Prison.

Although he was a Socdem.png social democrat and governed democratically in most regions of Spain, in the Basque Country region he had a rather authoritarian attitude, where under the nickname "Señor X" he secretly created the "GAL", which were PolState.png police death squads with the aim of destroying the terrorist organization ETA.png ETA. The GAL became very infamous for murdering various political opponents and terrorizing the Basque population.

    Cball-Zimbabwe.png Zimbabwe Mug.pngNewMugabe.png

    NewMugabe.png Emmerson Mnangagwa is the current President of Zimbabwe, former Vice President and former Minister of Defence, Justice, State Security, Rural Housing, former president of parliament and former guerrilla, in addition to being co-founder of "The Crocodile Gang", in which he committed several crimes, reason for his arrest in 1965-1975. He also helped Mugabe in the establishment of the Republic of Zimbabwe, being a member of ZANU. He is also accused of leading the Gukurahundi massacres, in which between 3,750-30,000 people died, even though he denies his participation, he said in an interview that the rebels were either insects or cockroaches and that the government should carry an insecticide. He was also accused of an attempted coup against Mugabe in 2007, but some analysts say this would discredit him and he remained in office.

    When he came to power, he promised to serve all citizens, restore the economy and reduce corruption, he also promised to put Zimbabwe in a prominent position in the world. Under his rule, he compensated white Zimbabweans who lost their land under Mugabe, created a black indigenous entrepreneurship program, and in 2020, Zimbabwe had an economic freedom growth of 2.7 points in 2020, even a decline in 2022 ( the world at large as well). He has tried to improve relations with the EU, UN, Commonwealth and UK, but Biden's US imposes more sanctions for human rights harm. There was an assassination attempt in 2018 and there was repression against protests in 2019 because of the increase in fuel prices.

    Cball-Georgia.png Georgia Shevardnadze.png

    • Shevardnadze.png Eduard Shevardnadze was a Cball-Georgia.png Georgian politician and diplomat who governed Georgia for several non-consecutive periods from the 1970s-1980s as the First Secretary of Georgian Communist Party of the Georgian Soviet Socialist Republic and as President of Georgia from 1995 until his resignation in 2003.

    As First Secretary, Shevardnadze started several economic reforms, which would spur economic growth in the republic despite the nationwide economic stagnation that plagued Cball-USSR.png the Soviet Union. In 1985, Gorb.png Mikhail Gorbachev appointed Shevardnadze to the post of Minister of Foreign Affairs and would play a crucial role in forming the Soviet's new foreign policy under the Gorbachev era. He negotiated nuclear arms treaties with Cball-US.png the United States, helped end the war in Cball-Afghanistan.png Afghanistan, allowed the reunification of Cball-Germany.png Germany, and withdrew Soviet forces from Eastern Europe and from the Chinese border. His western-friendly foreign policy put him at odds with Soviet hardliners who saw him as a sellout to the west.

    In the aftermath of the Soviet Union's collapse in 1991, Shevardnadze returned to the newly independent Georgia and became the country's second 2nd head of the state in 1995. His presidency was marked by rampant Klep.png corruption and accusations of nepotism as was the case in all PostSoviet.png post-communist countries of the former Eastern bloc at the time.

    Shevardnadze also faced Sep.png separatist conflicts in the regions of Cball-SouthOssetia.png South Ossetia and Cball-Abkhazia.png Abkhazia and the first Chechen war which damaged Georgia's relations with Cball-Russia.png Russia, which accused Shevardnadze of harboring Cball-Chechen.png Chechen guerrillas and in apparent retaliation supported Georgian separatists of the aforementioned separatist regions. Georgia-Russia relations were worsened by Shevardnadze's US-friendly foreign policy and strategic alliance with Cball-NATO.png NATO which saw him as a counterbalance to Russian influence in the Transcaucasus.

    Eduard Shevardnadze resigned following the 2003 Rose Revolution motivated by the rampant corruption in his administration and electoral fraud in the 2003 presidential election.

    Cball-Kazakhstan.png Kazakhstan Tokayev.png

    • Tokayev.png Kassym-Jomart Tokayev is a Kazakh politician and diplomat who is currently serving as the President of Kazakhstan since 12 June 2019 following the resignation of the country's former President and dictator Nursultan Nazarbayev.

    Throughout his presidency, he has enacted several reforms including increasing workers' salaries, reducing corruption, abolishing capital punishment, and decentralizing the local government.

    Despite some positive reforms Tokayev's government has maintained much of Nazarbayev's authoritarianism. This was seen during the 2022 Kazakh unrest, also known as "Bloody January", when a series of massive protests broke out in Kazakstan after a sudden sharp increase in liquefied gas prices following the lifting of a government-enforced price cap on 1 January 2022. The demonstrations quickly turned into violent riots, fueled by rising dissatisfaction with the government and economic inequality. Tokayev responded with a state of emergency and called for military intervention by the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) – a military alliance consisting of Russia and other former Soviet States. Tokayev ordered troops to use deadly force against protesters, authorizing instructions to "shoot to kill" without warning at anyone demonstrating, calling protesters "bandits and terrorists." Up to 227 people were killed and several thousand were arrested.

    After a week of violent unrest and brutal crackdowns, President Tokayev promised reform and acknowledged public discontent over income inequality, and informed that the vehicle gas prices caps of 50 tenge per litre had been restored for 6 months.

    Personality and Character

    SocAuth believes very much that welfare is something meant to be handled very seriously. He wants to do good with it but takes a very hardline, paternalistic, approach to the common citizens. He believes whatever he does will help the populace from poverty and improve national living standards no matter how good or bad it turns out, often giving him the impression of being SocAutocracy.png ¨autocratic¨ and a strict, ¨always on the job¨ character. He likes to criticize other welfarist ideologies, but likes their intentions. He also hates far-left ideologies such as ML.png Marxism-Leninism, Mao.png Maoism, Hoxha.png Hoxhaism, and LeftCom.png Left Communism for their Ormarxf.png endless marxist dogma. He is critical of Necon.png Neoconservatism of sabotaging him in various countries, though.

    • His cultural and economic views tend to vary a lot, but he usually wants an economic model resembling that of Soccap.png Social Capitalism. He pretty much doesn´t care much of other economic systems as long as they keep their regulations in check.

    • ML.png Marxism-Leninism - Revolution? Communism? Cringe! But on the other hand many of my followers were revolutionaries (Atatürk, Sun Yat-sen, Robespierre, etc..) and I like Castro and Tito despite being Communists, also Velasco liked you and so does Lukashenko, but NO, I will not get Marx's approval because his theories are outdated and insane. Otto Grotewohl even willingly merged eastern SPD with KPD, but sadly Pieck killed many ex-SPD members.
    • Nordmodel.png Nordic Model - Way too moderate but Tage Erlander was based and I'm sure your Danish version will turn into me over time.
    • Juche.png Juche - I like that you work with KSDP, but you treat them like a puppet and don't them take control.

The Marshall Plan was a brilliant idea to protect Europe from the rise of communism and it helped social authoritarian countries like Kemalist Turkey. However, you really need to stop attempting to coup every leader of the third world who tries to nationalize their country's resources for his people. What you did to Mosaddegh among others was unforgivable. At least Thaksin and Shevardnadze like you.
    • Neoliberal.png Neoliberalism - I dislike your presence. You hate the poor by cutting off welfare, you push the free market against countries´ closed trade even when they don´t want it, and global trade affects economies that are planned or central.

I also have to thank Khrushchev for recognizing the importance of NAM.png neutral countries and supporting Nasser.

    • Fash.png Fascism - Look, I know we both have similar economics and are both authoritarian. Socdem.png He tells me not to trust you.
