Share this article

For academics attempting to decipher conservatism, veteran publisher and conservative Alfred S. Regnery can introduce them to the four pillars of the philosophy, and they’re not going to like it one bit.

According to Regnery:

• The first pillar of conservatism is liberty, or freedom.
• The second pillar of conservative philosophy is tradition and order.
• The third pillar is the rule of law.
• The fourth pillar is belief in God.
