Not to be confused with Reactionary Libertarianism

Reactionary Liberalism, also known as Paleoconservative Liberalism is an economically center-right to far-right, statist (but mostly democratic) civically variable and culturally right to far-right ideology who believes in a union of economic policies typical of liberalism (pro-free enterprise capitalist market economy, typically Classical Liberal in nature but sometimes it can be Keynesian or Social market economy) and a democratic system of government with reactionary and traditionalist social values, although a minority of them propose non-democratic forms of government. It is defined by it's belief that there should be a separation between Free-Market Capitalism/Liberal Democracy and Post-Enlightenment cultural views, which it deems as "degenerate".

Unlike most ideologies on this wiki, this one isn't a serious theoretical one or has many open advocates IRL, as the majority of the far-right claim to be against "liberalism". It mostly originates from insults of File:Soc.png Leftists towards far-right figures who seem to promote Neoliberal economics, which they claim contradicts with their "nationalist" and "anti-globalist" image.

Personality and Behavior

Unlike most other culturally reactionary ideologies, he does not view the institution of liberal democracy as contradictory to or incompatible with far-right social views, seeing social File:Progress.png Progressivism as a problem separate to the system it exists in, which makes him somewhat of an "opposite unity" ideology between the Liberal Dynasty and the far-right.

On a similar note, his cultural views set him aside from other liberal ideologies though sharing substantial similarities with National Liberalism and Conservative Liberalism.Older Reactionary Liberals tend to be part of the Religious Right, who believe that a liberal democratic system and strong traditional Christian society can be combined. Younger Reactionary Liberals very commonly are part of the Online New Right movements , tend to bitch and moan complain about "free speech" whenever they're censored by progressive corporations for their edgy behavior. They tend to rant about "Cultural Marxism", "Globohomo" and "Gender Ideology" and how they want to take away their values.

In 2017 he ran for President independently, representing a right wing sector that strongly defended such values and wasn't happy with the idea of voting for Sebastián Piñera again. He got 7.9% of counted votes.
That sentiment grew as he approved gender identity laws, pardoned illegal migrants and let increasing crime be. Popular demand for a voice against that wasn't present in any political party; so Republican Party was founded with that task in mind.
After the 2019 widespread riots in most major cities in Chile, the proposal of rewriting the Chilean Constitution from scratch and a subsequential referendum, José Antonio Kast was one of the only Chilean politicians with a clear standing against its rewriting, thus becoming the face for the "hard right wing" in Chile.
