Citizenship has been an ill-explored subject within Conservative Party studies. When this subject has been analysed, it is usually made by scholars of citizenship, more concerned with general overviews than understanding specific Conservative approaches to the concept. This book intends to fill this gap.Through a rigorous analysis of sources, the author explores how the Conservative Party contested the welfare model of citizenship and sought to recreate a new relationship between the individual, the state and civil society. Starting from Thatcher’s idea of ‘active citizenship’ and going through the analysis of John Major’s ‘Citizen’s Charter’ and David Cameron’s ‘Big Society’ project, the book sheds new light on how these developments responded to long-term problems while dialoguing with specific circumstances and the different Conservative leaders’ ideas.From an ideological perspective, the author analyses how these leaders echoed and re-signified more traditional political ideas and ideologies while negotiating with and borrowing new flourishing concepts during those years. Far from being a unidimensional citizenship concept, in reinterpreting old ideas and utilizing new ones, these Conservatives elaborated a complex and many times contradictory citizenship model that tried to address both long-lasting and more timely issues that overlapped in British society.

Latin American Conservatism and the Rise of the Far-Right is a comparative study that focuses on contemporary conservatism in Latin America and its historical development, seeking to identify and analyze dialogues, similarities, and differences between countries in the Global South and North, as well their interactions with former colonial powers.Scholars of modern conservatism and right-wing ideologies in Latin America have focused on profound changes since the Second World War, especially the close ideological and material connections between (neo)conservatism and neoliberal ideology, and more recently, the influence on conservatives and conservatism of far-right populist movements. Through contributions from specialists in several Latin American countries, this book shows how conservative ideology has evolved since the 19th century in response to challenges from both the political right and the left. The study reveals that contemporary movements, fueled by populism, social media and transnational influences, represent a new manifestation of a long-standing dilemma for Latin American conservatives, whose primary concerns have always been social, cultural and political stability in a context where the legacy of the past is itself a potent source of division. To deepen understanding of the historical and ideological context, the book includes chapters on Portugal, Spain and the US.Offering a highly distinctive approach to the study of ideology in historical and contemporary contexts, Latin American Conservatism and the Rise of the Far Right provides valuable insight for students of History, International Relations, Political Science, and Latin American Studies.
