    Social Neoconservatism or Social Hawkism is a center-left to center-right ideology which combines Neoconservatism with a communitarian and paternalistic approach to an otherwise fiscally conservative economic system. They tend to favor some (or more) amount of wealth redistribution and government spending coupled with a hawkish, interventionist foreign policy.

    History

    United States

    Cold War Liberalism

    A major founding influence on Neoconservatism were the beliefs of prominent Democratic senator Henry M. Jackson. He supported labor rights and social programs while also taking a hardline anti-Soviet stance throughout the Cold War. Many prominent neocons formerly worked for Jackson, including Paul Wolfowitz and Bill Kristol.

    Social Democrats USA

    In the 1970s, certain figures of the American socialist movement took a Neoconservative shift, advocating for a more interventionist and pro-western foreign policy. This was in large part due to their fierce opposition to Marxism-Leninism and the belief that labor rights must co-exist with democracy.

    Many advocates of this "neoconservative socialism" were leading members of the Social Democrats USA (SDUSA), a political group that succeeded the defunct Socialist Party of America in 1972. SDUSA members associated with Neoconservatism include Bayard Rustin, Penn Kemble and Carl Gershman. Kemble in particular supported the US-backed Contras during the Nicaraguan civil war and also backed the Iraq War in 2003.
