Fusionism

Common card · No. 261567

In American politics and political philosophy, fusionism refers to the philosophical and political combination of traditionalism and social conservatism with political and economic right-libertarianism. The concept is most closely associated with the political philosopher Frank Meyer, and it was popularized on the American right through the publication National Review. By the time of the presidency of Ronald Reagan (1981–89), fusionism was the dominant political philosophy within the Republican Party. Fusionism has been associated with other political movements on the American right, including neoconservatism, and contrasted to others, including Rockefeller Republicanism, "compassionate conservatism," national conservatism, and Trumpism.
