Answer:

<em>Parens Patriae</em>

Explanation:

Parens patriae is <em>a legal term that describes to the power of the government to act in the interests of individuals who can not provide for themselves.</em>

For instance, parens patriae doctrine empowers a judge to grant or reallocate a minor child's custody, irrespective of the wishes of the parents.

In fact, parens patriae can be interpreted as specifically as serving a single child's interests and as widely as ensuring the entire population's well-being.

What are the core values of conservatives
Luden [163]

Answer:

Explanation:

En política, se denomina conservadurismo al conjunto de doctrinas, corrientes, opiniones y posiciones, generalmente de centroderecha y derecha, que favorecen las tradiciones1​ y que son adversas a los cambios políticos, sociales o económicos radicales, oponiéndose al progresismo. En lo social, los conservadores defienden valores familiares y religiosos.

El conservadurismo es un modelo mental que es enseñado de manera individual o colectiva, con base en las enseñanzas o experiencias adquiridas en las diferentes etapas de la vida de los seres humanos y con el objetivo de moldear los hábitos de las personas conforme a las creencias del conservadurismo de determinada sociedad del mundo.2​

En lo económico, los conservadores históricamente se posicionaron como proteccionistas, en oposición al libre mercado. Sin embargo, durante el siglo XX algunos de los partidos conservadores adoptaron posiciones económicas liberales al fusionarse con partidos de esta tendencia, aliados en la defensa del sistema socioeconómico capitalista, en oposición al socialismo y el comunismo. Consecuentemente, en la actualidad dentro del conservadurismo político coexisten diversas posturas sobre lo económico. A la fusión entre ambas posturas se la denomina comúnmente como liberalismo conservador.

Así, dentro de la misma corriente algunos buscan mantener las condiciones presentes o un progreso paulatino dentro de un orden social heredado, otros buscan volver a situaciones anteriores, por lo que existe una cierta confusión —incluso dentro de la misma cultura política— acerca de quiénes serían, en un momento dado, conservadores. Martín Blinkhorn, por ejemplo, pregunta: "¿Quiénes son los conservadores en la Rusia de estos días? ¿Son los estalinistas irredentos o los reformadores que han aceptado las visiones políticas de derecha de los conservadores modernos, tal como Margaret Thatcher?".
