New Right
New Right A political philosophy and its proponents, particularly associated with the Thatcher and Reagan administrations in Britain and the United States during the 1980s, that represented a radical break with social democratic values—most visibly in rhetoric but also in practice. Frequently listed beliefs include commitment to the free
market, to individual freedom, and to the reduction of state intervention and
welfare; a
populist morality; and authoritarianism (see
AUTHORITARIAN PERSONALITY).
During the 1980s, some sociologists built on New Right ideas to argue that their discipline had come to be dominated by the
domain assumptions of a Leftist or Social Democratic political agenda, being implicitly opposed to the market and obsessed by issues of
inequality. In one of the most elegant of such critiques, Peter Berger offers fifty propositions about prosperity, equality, and liberty, which link the attainment of all three closely to the aggressive pursuit of a free-market
capitalism (see
The Capitalist Revolution, 1986).
