IDEOLOGICAL DEFINITION OF THE CENTRE-RIGHT A definition of the term "centre-right" is necessarily broad and approximate because political terms have varying meanings in different countries. Parties of the centre-right generally support Liberal Democracy , Capitalism , the Market Economy , private Property Rights and the existence of the Welfare State in some form. They generally oppose Socialism , extreme Secularism and the use of Violence as a political tool. Such a definition generally includes political parties that base their ideology and policies upon Conservatism and Economic Liberalism . However, parties that subscribe to Social Liberalism are often associated with the Centre-left . Centre-right parties often ground themselves in Traditional values; as such, most predominantly Christian states possess a competitive centre-right Christian Democratic party. The use of centre-right is sometimes expanded to include Populist right-wing parties such as the Freedom Party Of Austria , the Danish People's Party , and the Law And Justice (PiS) party in Poland . While the Freedom Party and the Danish People's Party would generally be classified as right-wing, parties like Law and Justice are both populist and conservative, and so are sometimes classified centre-right.
