This is an archive of the former website of the Maoist Internationalist Movement, which was run by the now defunct Maoist Internationalist Party - Amerika. The MIM now consists of many independent cells, many of which have their own indendendent organs both online and off. MIM(Prisons) serves these documents as a service to and reference for the anti-imperialist movement worldwide.

Conservatism is the ideology upholding the status quo--defending a lack of social change. The status quo
is different in different countries, so conservatism is also different in different countries. However, as far
as we communists are concerned, there are no modern classless societies anywhere, so all conservatism
has in common the defense of classes and class society. That means conservatives defend the existing
slavery, semi-feudalism or capitalism of their own societies and sometimes other societies.
MIM has taken on the task of formulating a general line for the road forward in the imperialist countries, especially
those imperialist countries we enumerate as having bought-off petty-bourgeois majorities. On this web page
we will focus on "American conservatism," that conservatism heavily tinged by creationism and other Christian extremist
ideas as compared with European imperialist conservatism.
