+#REDIRECT [[Neoconservatism]]
-. The idea that Government programs have unintended effects and so in many cases should not be implemented. This usually only concerns Domestic policies, such as welfare, healthcare and other social programs.
-. In Foreign Policy the bringing of Democracy to other countries. Democratic Peace Theory, as it is known, has strong roots in the academic world. Many Washington think-tanks, and neo-cons such as Paul Wolfowitz, have combined this theory which states that legitimate democracies don't go to war with one another with a penchant for strong, technocratic central leadership. A criticism of neo-conservatism in foreign policy is that the reliance on the forceful imposition of democracy by exceedingy strong and unchallengeable leadership goes against the tenets of democracy itself.
-. In Economics cutting taxes to stimulate growth, very similar to the trickle down theory.
