Changes

The '''New Right''' refers to a political philosophy that combines a return to [[classical liberalism]] with [[traditional values]] and strong, but [[limited government]]. In the [[United Kingdom]], the New Right was championed by [[Conservative]] [[Cabinet]] minister [[Keith Joseph]], but rejected by the [[Conservative Party]] hierarchy at the time, led by [[Edward Heath]]. Following the Party's loss in the 1974 general elections, [[Margaret Thatcher]] seized the leadership on a New Right platform that would reshape British politics to the political Right.

The '''New Right''' also inspired the conservative revival in the United States under [[President]] [[Ronald Reagan]], helping to overturn the moderate [[Ford]] and [[Nixon]] wing of the [[Republican Party]], as well as the [[liberal]] [[New Deal]] wing of the [[Democratic Party]], forcing that party to shift to the centre ground under [[Bill Clinton]].
