This article is about the Ideology of the Wallace Regime. For the Maoist concept, see New Democracy. For other uses, see New Democracy (disambiguation).

New Democracy, more commonly known as Wallaceism or by some, Southern Fascism[Note 1] has been the official government system of the American Independent Party since 1983, the majority ideology of the party, and the direct brainchild of American Federation former President and de-facto dictator George Wallace. Variously described as paleoconservative, authoritarian, nationalist, neo-fascist, and tropical fascist, it is generally considered to be a far right, reactionary ideology, emphasizing typical more further right conservative beliefs paired with much more reactionary and isolationist stances, as well as the maintaining of segregation, something nearly universally condemned by the international community. Considered to generally be against liberal democracy, New Democracy maintains a facade of single-party pseudo-democracy, when in reality is simply run by the regime and more specifically, the party's inner circle.

Ideology

An inherently nationalist and reactionary ideology built on racism, Wallaceism has been compared to fascism, though more specifically Francoism and Austrofascism over other varieties, noting its semi-isolationist stances. Unlike the more outwardly fascistic Dukeism of the party's minority, these comparisons have been contested by some political scientists, instead noting it to be similar to many dictatorships, especially post-colonial ones. Condemned for its outwardly segregationist stances, the ideology has seen the American Federation be widely isolated on the international stage, with the Federation's one major partner, South Africa, parting ways in 1994 at the end of Apartheid.

  1. Never referred to as such by its mainline followers, although fringe groups have embraced the label.
