**Right-Wing Politics** or the **Political Right** are a range of
|
|
political perspectives which emphasise the importance, benefits,
|
|
inevitability and normalcy of hierarchy. Right-wing politics often
|
|
emphasises the importance of concepts like loyalty, respect for
|
|
authority, purity, family, tradition, hard work and a natural order. In
|
|
addition, strong belief in [capitalism](capitalism "wikilink") and
|
|
opposition to modern social justice movements is seen as a right-wing
|
|
belief, despite frequent conflicts with the anti-capitalist right.

According to Moral Foundations Theory, right-wing politics values the

concept of:

|
|
|
- *Care*: cherishing and protecting others; opposite of *harm*
|
|
- *Fairness* or *proportionality*: rendering justice according to
|
|
shared rules; opposite of *cheating*
|
|
- *Loyalty* or *ingroup*: standing with your group, family, nation;
|
|
opposite of *betrayal*
|
|
- *Authority* or *respect*: submitting to tradition and legitimate
|
|
authority; opposite of *subversion*
|
|
- *Sanctity* or *purity*: abhorrence for disgusting things, foods,
|
|
actions; opposite of *degradation*
