Link to Social conservatism is wrong. The danish(nordic/north european?) concept of social conservatism is not what that article describes. Since the concept translated to American terms as: Social minded liberal conservatism, maybe that should be described? Carewolf 15:09, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

To claim they are social conservative (in english terms) is wrong. I think the party is social liberal, and we should refrain from speculating what their ideologies are. We can add the proper info when we see the party platform in Aug. this year. Angelbo Talk / Contribs 15:20, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
What I wrote was simply what Khader said himself during the press conference. Their webpage states the same: Ny Alliance er et borgerligt midterparti, der vil bygge bro mellem blokkene. Partiet vil bygge på det, der samler, frem for det, der skiller. Vi vil tage det bedste fra social-liberalister og social-konservative og bruge det til at reformere det danske samfund. [1] It looks to me like Khader is trying to avoid having his new party identified simply as Denmark's fourth liberal party (Venstre, Radikale, Liberalisterne, Ny Alliance).

I know, and I've heard the word socialkonservatisme used before in both danish and swedish politics (in Denmark to describe the pro-welfare part of the Conservative party), but this is not the same as what is meant by Social Conservatism in english. The swedish computer game Victoria had the same problem, since no one knew what they meant by Social Conservative parties. I just think that socialkonservatisme is completely different from Social Conservatism. Either the Social Conservatism article needs to be expanded to cover the nordic translation, or it should be translated differently. Carewolf 16:38, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
