Aldricism
Aldricism is a conservative-liberal political ideology, originally defined by the politician and statesman Hartmut Aldric, Duke of Calezi, Regent and Steward of Shireroth. Aldricism is a political ideology combining conservative policies with liberal stances, especially on economic, social, and ethical issues. Aldric founded the Imperial Democratic Party (IDP) to represent this ideology. When Elwynn obtained its independence, the political and organizational structures and organizations of the IDP in Elwynn became the Democratic Party of Elwynn. Aldricism has also been referred to as a "neoliberal" ideology, though the term is commonly used by scholars and commentarists using opposing meanings.
