Neolibertarianism is an economically right-wing, moderate
libertarian, and culturally
variable, albeit usually,
right-leaning ideology. His beliefs stem from the concept that negative rights are largely incompatible with a strictly limited government, and thus, he is generally supportive of government involvement in society as long as it "promotes greater liberty". The most generally distinguished of these policies Neobert believes "promote greater liberty" are foreign military interventions, which puts him at odds with the majority of the people within
his quadrant while being very friendly to
Neoconservatism.
On this wiki, he is used to representing the ideology of conservative commentator Ben Shapiro, over large disagreement on whether he's a
Libertarian Conservative (which he self-describes as), or a
Neoconservative (for his strong support of American foreign interventionism).
History
The first neolibertarians used the term in response to the Iraq War. Distancing themselves from the generally anti-war response of the mainstream libertarian movement, neolibertarians proudly set out their reasons for supporting the War on Terror and an effort to secure the freedom of the Iraqi people.
While most libertarians tend to adopt isolationist positions on issues and matters of war, neolibertarians range anywhere from ambivalent to strongly for intervention: The Iraq War, and to a lesser extent, the U.S. Invasion of
Afghanistan represent ongoing disputes between these factions.
Another key difference is in regards to domestic policy, where neolibertarians are strong advocates of incrementalism, i.e. making many small changes over time. By contrast, mainstream libertarians tend to advocate for drastic, almost-immediate policy changes.
Despite getting along better with Neoconservatism, they have arguments with them as well. Where neoconservatives strongly support the building of capitalist states after defeating/overthrowing non-cappies by force, neolibertarians are more concerned with letting
Capitalism operate after any military victory. If capitalism is allowed to operate, they argue, the former subjects of militarily defeated governments will naturally arrange governments (whatever the form) that are, if only out of political expediency, more friendly to their subjects' newfound economic freedoms, and therefore, much less likely to jeopardize the benefits, which neolibertarians believe capitalism offers.
