Neocons, Hard Wilsonianism, Redux

As of today, I am the number one entry on google for the term "militant wilsonianism", if you quote the words.

To celebrate I thought I would list a few links, that discuss this concept also known as "hard wilsonianism" or "neo wilsonianism."

• Nickels worth of free advice
• Good Definition
• Conservatism, Labels, and American Foreign Policy, Part II -- adds term "hard wilsonian"
• What the Heck Is a 'Neocon'? -- much ballyhooed Max Boot op-ed piece
• principled pragmatism -- adds the term neo-wilsonian

My favorite, albeit broad, definition is this one.

The neocons, in the famous formulation of one of their leaders, Irving Kristol, were "liberals mugged by reality."

Collection of other Irving Kristol quotations. One of my favorites is this one.

"[Conservatism] Our revolutionary message ... is that a self-disciplined people can create a political community in which an ordered liberty will promote both economic prosperity and political participation."

... followed by ...

"Democracy does not guarantee equality of conditions - it only guarantees equality of opportunity."
