The Conservative Movement Grows 1980: Ronald Reagan, conservative hero was named President.

Two View: Liberal and Conservative Democrats labeled: liberals Republicans labeled: conservatives Liberals: favored government intervention to help the needy. Conservatives: allowing the free market, private organizations, and individuals help. Website on issues: https://www.studentnewsdaily.com/conservative-vs-liberal-beliefs/.

Liberals believe in government action to achieve equal opportunity and equality for all. duty of the government to alleviate social ills and to protect civil liberties and individual and human rights. role of the government should be to guarantee that no one is in need. Liberal policies generally emphasize the need for the government to solve problems.

Conservatives believe in personal responsibility, limited government, free markets, individual liberty, traditional American values and a strong national defense. Large central government endangered economic growth and individual choice. role of government should be to provide people the freedom necessary to pursue their own goals. policies generally emphasize empowerment of the individual to solve problems.

The Conservative Movement Gains Strength The New Right: growing conservative movement was called. Coalition of several different groups with varying ideas and goals.

Liberalism Loses Its Appeal Stagnating economy Vietnam war and urban riots of 1960s divided the same people who had rallied around Presidents Johnsons vision of the Great Society.

New Right Criticizes Liberal Programs Conservatives believed: liberal policies were responsible for stagflation and economic problems. Govt taxed citizens and businesses too heavily Spent to much on wrong programs Unfunded mandates Criticized welfare programs Sagebrush rebels: believed the fed govt controlled to much land in the western states. States should control land

Religious Participation Rises Moral Majority: founder> Jerry Falwell Worried about decline of the traditional family. Engel V. Vitale Forbade religious teachings in schools Roe V. Wade which recognized that the constitutional right to privacy extends to a woman’s right to make her own personal medical decisions — including the decision to have an abortion without interference from politicians.

Population Trends Boost Conservatism When an increasing number of Americans moved to the suburbs their attachment to liberalism waned as they struggled financially.
