I wanted to know more about left wing and right wing so I've been studying this chapter about the political spectrum
https://books.google.com/books?id=hKO9CgAAQBAJ&pg=PA14&source=gbs_toc_r&cad=3#v=onepage&q&f=false and it's a bit confusing to me. Here are some questions I have,
1. It says how conservatives want to preserve the societies institutions, but what are the institutions they wish to preserve?
2. I've heard school choice, which is a relatively new idea, is supported by conservatives, despite it being a large change to the education system. Why are some new ideas considered conservative when liberals are the advocates for change.
3. If reactionary is defined by retrogressive change, then why is fascism a reactionary system when it's never been a system in America in past?
Thank you.
