Abbreviation of the word “neoconservative”. Neoconservatism is a political ideology and movement born from liberal hawks in the United States who became disenchanted with the increasingly pacifist foreign policy of the Democratic Party, the growth of movements such as the Counterculture Of The 1960s, the New Left and the Vietnam Protests. Some even began questioning their liberal beliefs on domestic policy such as the Great Society. They are known for their advocacy of an aggressive interventionist foreign policy and a vigorous support for free-market capitalism, similar to the closely related neoliberals who rose around the same time. The term should mainly be contrasted with the word “Paleocon”.
