Monetarists and neoliberals attacked social welfare systems as impediments to private entrepreneurship. That said, liberals and neoliberals are often called centrists too. In addition, nationalists were considered statist, which clashed sharply with the neoliberals. The 1990s saw many battles between modernising neoliberals and conservatives. The neoliberals coalesced around two magazines, "The New Republic" and the "Washington Monthly". We are not neoliberals, we are liberated beings. Neoliberals advocate for an increasing role of the free market. Neoliberals hold that private property rights are a non-negotiable natural right.
