}}'''Authoritarian Capitalism''', referred to by the abbreviation '''AuthCap''' or moniker '''Illiberal Capitalism''', is an economically right wing, authoritarian and culturally ambivalent ideology advocating for a system in which a capitalist market economy exists alongside an authoritarian government. Authoritarian capitalists argue that by utilizing elements of [[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism]], regimes may more effectively employ modern technologies to suppress dissidence towards government. In addition, it is argued that capitalist free-market policies leads to an increase in authoritarian policies. The core of this argument lies in the view that citizens will support whichever regime provides the most material comforts. |
