Liberal Conservatism

Agree

Yes

Liberal conservatism generally supports the idea of a rules-based international order and would likely agree that there should be some restrictions on government arms sales to countries accused of committing human rights violations. This stance is in line with promoting democracy and human rights globally, principles that are often upheld by liberal conservative ideologies. However, the support is not at the maximum level because liberal conservatives might also weigh the strategic importance of certain alliances that could necessitate arms sales.

Agree

No, this could prevent our allies from defending themselves against our mutual enemies

Liberal conservatism might sympathize with the argument that preventing arms sales could undermine the defense capabilities of allies, especially in the context of mutual enemies that threaten liberal democratic values. However, the score is moderate because liberal conservatism also places a strong emphasis on human rights and the rule of law, suggesting a nuanced approach that seeks to balance strategic defense interests with moral and ethical considerations.

Slightly agree

Yes, and ban all sales to countries with human rights violations

While liberal conservatism values human rights and the rule of law, the ideology also recognizes the complexity of international relations and the sometimes-necessary role of pragmatism in foreign policy. A total ban on sales to countries with human rights violations might be seen as too rigid, potentially undermining strategic alliances and interests. Therefore, while there's some agreement due to the human rights concern, it's tempered by practical considerations.

Disagree

No

Liberal conservatism, with its emphasis on moral responsibility and international norms, would generally disagree with the notion of having no restrictions on arms sales to countries accused of human rights violations. This position conflicts with the liberal conservative principle of upholding human rights. However, the disagreement is not at the maximum level because liberal conservatives might also consider the geopolitical and strategic implications of completely cutting off arms sales to certain nations.

Strongly disagree

Yes, but I would prefer a ban on all military aid to any foreign countries

Liberal conservatism typically supports the use of foreign policy, including military aid, as a tool for promoting national interests and international stability. A blanket ban on all military aid to foreign countries would be contrary to the liberal conservative approach of engaging with the world to promote democracy, human rights, and security. This stance recognizes the importance of strategic alliances and the use of military aid as leverage in international relations.
