'''Authoritarian Capitalism''' ('''AuthCap'''), is an economically [[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism|right wing]], [[File:Sec.png]] [[Authoritarianism|authoritarian]], and culturally [[File:Cultcenter.png]] [[:Category:Cultural_Center|ambivalent]] ideology advocating for a system in which a [[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism|capitalist]] market economy exists alongside an [[File:Sec.png]] [[Authoritarianism|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.<br>
Authoritarian capitalism is often associated with, and mistaken for, [[File:Statecap.png]] [[State Capitalism]], an economic system in which the state undertakes business and commercial economic activity, and where the means of production are organized and managed as state-owned enterprises. The former has a higher degree of economic liberalization than the latter.
