Take a look at Macron in France - he sure stepped right up to a hardline of "strength over liberties" after the London attacks.
I equate neoliberal with corporatist.
Neoliberalism is a right-wing (but not far-right) position.
> The most effective neoliberals are "centrist" and rely as much on "strong defense" and "economy uber allies" posturing as neoconservatives.
Neoconservatism is essentially the policy of using (specifically US) military force and related means to establish and secure a neoliberal international regime. The names might make you think that neoliberalism and neoconservatism are opposed, but that is not at all the case.
> I equate neoliberal with corporatist.
Pro-corporate capitalist would be accurate. Corporatism is a whole different thing.
My "all governments are bad, but government is good" leftist friend derisively calls me neoliberal for me thinking US has moral superiority over Russia, or that we should project power in any part of the world but our own. He's a good guy, though.
