The central tenets of conservatism include tradition, organic society, hierarchy, authority, and property rights. Conservatives seek to preserve a range of institutions such as religion, parliamentary government, and property rights, with the aim of emphasizing social stability and continuity. The more traditional elements—reactionaries—oppose modernism and seek a return to “the way things were” Solidarity Solidarity is an awareness of shared interests, objectives, standards, and sympathies creating a psychological sense of unity of groups or classes.

The central tenets of conservatism include tradition, organic society, hierarchy, authority, and property rights.[1] Conservatives seek to preserve a range of institutions such as religion, parliamentary government, and property rights, with the aim of emphasizing social stability and continuity.[2] The more traditional elements—reactionaries—oppose modernism and seek a return to “the way things were”.[3][4] The first established use of the term in a political context originated in 1818 with François-René de Chateaubriand[5] during the period of Bourbon Restoration that sought to roll back the policies of the French Revolution. Historically associated with right-wing politics, the term has since been used to describe a wide range of views. There is no single set of policies regarded as conservative because the meaning of conservatism depends on what is considered traditional in a given place and time. Thus conservatives from different parts of the world—each upholding their respective traditions—may disagree on a wide range of issues. Edmund Burke, an 18th-century politician who opposed the French Revolution, but supported the American Revolution, is credited as one of the main theorists of conservatism in Great Britain in the 1790s.[6] According to Quintin Hogg, the chairman of the British Conservative Party in 1959: “Conservatism is not so much a philosophy as an attitude, a constant force, performing a timeless function in the development of a free society, and corresponding to a deep and permanent requirement of human nature itself”.[7]

The Nuance of Improved Inputs
Mar 22, 2020, 1:42 AM by Luke Weinhagen P often looks like a competing interpretation of philosophy or a competing ideology. When what is really offers is fidelity and disambiguity to the underlying concepts of all philosophy and ideology (at differing costs to each). In the case of UPB this clarity comes from discovery of a superior definition of property. In the case of NAP this clarity comes in the form of identification of full-accounting. So, counter-reaction is usually misaligned nuance I think. The nuance is in being able to see these simply as improved inputs and not as just making the original work wrong.

A Full Answer of Demonstrated Interests
Mar 22, 2020, 11:03 AM It is hard to start with first principles. We always want to narrow the domain set of our question rather than start from first principles. The first principle is time. We are in a continuous competition with time, and our inventory of resources, because of the cost of persisting our existence. Cooperation saves time. we have the same input as we did 50k ypb. The ability to cooperate creates possibility of obtaining returns on time. Cooperation provides caloric returns on time. But all opportunities for cooperation are in competition with others’ wants and opportunities, including the opportunity to prey and parasite upon one another. When people come together in proximity they (a) create opportunities for a division of labor (b) increase choice of goods services and information by division of labor (c) decrease opportunity costs of exchange within that division (d) increase opportunity and incentive for parasitism and predation, (e) create institutions to decrease transaction costs – including risk.

Markets And The Necessity Of Full Accounting
Mar 22, 2020, 11:24 AM Questions: Are we running barrel-making as a private corporation? Or are we running the city as a private corporation? Or are we running the state as a private corporation? Or are we running the empire as a private corporation? Or are we running the civilization as a private corporation? Or are we running the world as a private corporation? Let’s say we have 200 men working in barrel making. if some group wants to come into town and set up shop, or sell barrels within the town, what are the trade offs?
(a) Dilute the market they take away from the others in the town.
(b) Cause a reduction in prices if the prices are extractive
(c) Put everyone out of business by doing so and raise the cost of barrels produced elsewhere, and force the reconstitution of the industry internally. Now, increase transportability. Rivers, ships, railroads, trucks, and the opportunity to compete across markets increases, and the opportunity to shift production increases because of it. … until you’re burning capital. So my point being that unless you’re measuring capital rather than price you don’t know if your general rule is true. Right now we’re seeing the fallacy of the utility of globalism: fragility.Well, we’re also seeing the fallacy of the utility of urbanism. Fragility and risk. Thinking this process through will generally cause us to break our bad habits by failing full accounting.

—“What’s a Demonstrated interest?”—
Demonstrated interest without imposing upon others demonstrated interests is a fact. Possession is a fact. Property requires an an agreement. Property rights require an institutional means of enforcement. I bear costs of existing (Natural Interest). I bear costs of acting (Demonstration) I bear costs of acquiring goods, services, information, opportunity. (Demonstrated Interests) I demonstrate an interest by bearing a cost on that which no other has born a cost to demonstrate an interest. I consent to a portfolio of reciprocally insured property with others. I consent or am forced to comply with an institutional means of reciprocally insuring property with others.
—“Does theft demonstrate an interest? (you still have to invest your time into committing a theft) The stolen good can be a possession as long as defended but it’s not property. If demonstrated interest is obtained by homesteading, can’t it can be obtained by any kind of investment and become possession – but when it’s not collectively insured, it doesn’t become property, and when it’s an imposition of cost on someone who had it collectively insured, it’s a prohibited possession?”—
Conflating cost and interest. One bears a cost to demonstrate an interest. One bears a cost but fails to demonstrate an interest. So a thief has born a cost and taken possession but he has not demonstrated an interest. But this is an excellent, and deep question that means you are getting to the first foundations.

Reciprocity functions as the explanation of the preservation of demonstrated interest
Mar 22, 2020, 1:04 PM Reciprocity functions as the explanation of the preservation of demonstrated interest, against which people will not retaliate. Starting with reciprocity instead of the first principle of time, the utility of cooperation, the self defense of limiting yourself to reciprocity, and the offensive defense of your interests by demanding reciprocity starts with presumption (dependency, contingency). Instead: Time > value of cooperation > incentive to cooperate > incentive to cheat > incentive to punish, restitute, prevent > incentive to preserve cooperation (reciprocity) > incentive to produce restitution, punishment, and prevention. So, if we said reciprocity was the first principle we would be stuck with a contingency. But once we start with the necessity of time, proximity, cooperation, incentives, cheating, suppression of it, and work up from there, reciprocity is simply the logical and empirical means of obtaining the greatest rewards and the lowest costs outside of war etc. It provides universal decidability in matters of conflict. But It cannot function as a via positiva. It’ is not a ‘good’. It is the means by which we prevent the bad. Good is anything else that is not bad. This means people adopt a normal distribution of behaviors and we seek to use the test of reciprocity to suppress the violators thereby preserving all the value of cooperation across the scale from the individual to the polity. The problem arises when an unsupportable number of people in any market cannot survive by reciprocal means because they have noting to trade – not even labor – and therefore we have passed the limit of proportionality (reciprocity within the limits of proportionality.) It is no longer possible for these people to obtain ANY proportion of the returns on cooperation. Traditionally that means ‘leave this market for another’ or ‘retreat from the market into subsistence farming’ or ‘retreat from the market into crime’. From which we cull criminals by prosecution and those on subsistence by starvation and disease. Government intervention no longer provides this selection pressure. The current human training is to seek the via positiva moral claim as a demonstration of (in dominance order) fealty < loyalty < conformity < submission to the group. Positives are easy because we only have to imitate them. Negatives are harder, because we are required to think (problem solve). This is why we need multiple means of communicating across a population from high empathy low precision to limited empathy limited precision, to low or no empathy high precision. And it is the preservation of all THREE means that has made possible the western avoidance of monopoly by regression to the mean of the ability of the population.
