The term 'conservative' is used to denote 'someone who usually supports or favors the maintenance of status quo' and denies any kind of change or modification in the conventional institutions or beliefs. These people usually tend to show support, in fact rigidity to the 'social as well as economic status quo' and tend to show an opposition towards the introduction of any kind of new political arrangements or economic formulas that they view as a threat to their existing authority of beliefs/status quo.
