Current inspired by John Maynard Keynes that accepts markets and liberal democracy but gives the state the task of managing demand, with countercyclical public spending, full employment as a goal and a mixed economy.
Political stance that judges proposals by the practical results they produce rather than fidelity to an ideological dogma, combining market measures, regulation, and social policy according to evidence and each problem's context.
Right-wing progressive branch that unites capitalism and the cult of technological progress with a socially progressive, pragmatic, and secular culture, entrusting society's direction to a technical elite rather than mass democracy.
