The Rechte (literally "right") or Nidwaldeser Rechte (English: Nidwaldeser Right) is a centre-right ludwigist political party of Nidwalden. It is the second oldest and major party in Nidwalden as well as the leading party in the Mann Cabinet. The current leader is the Prime Minister Charlotte Mann.
The party is traditionally linked to one of its most important leaders, Ludwig Mann and the doctrine born from his administrations, Ludwigism, which the party has combined over the years with different degrees. The Rechte governed during most of the nineteenth century with a strong opposition of the Conservative Party. During most of its administrations, the party has been linked to the monarchy of Nidwalden and educated elites, to which the party is believed to have founded a "progressive spirit" own of Nidwalden. Over the years, it has implemented several progressive and innovative reforms in the Church of Nidwalden, the labour and social areas that set the bases for the long democratic heritage of Nidwalden. In 1915 the party proposed Christen Holsteinborg for the position of Prime Minister, which later that same year, turned into the first democratically elected woman in Nidwalden. Most of these progressive alignments caused, between the 1930s and 1970s, a major breakthrough inside the party and the depart of several members, key figures and voters to the recently founded and leftist Social Democratic. During most of this period, Ludwigists were the theoretical impulsors of Social Democracy in Nidwalden. Although having been on the right of the Nidwaldeser political spectrum, since the 1980s, the party has undergone several processes of moderation and which turned into a liberal party in several issues regarding LGBT rights, economic positions and its general conservative positions. It is regarded as the most centre party of the right wing parties of the Lorecian Community.
Since its beginnings and with brief leadership of more right factions, the Rechte has been advocated to the protection of the Nidwaldeser welfare state and Nidwaldeser state owned enterprises, the promotion of social and economic equality and the vision of the state as a link between the different social areas. Between 1990s and the 2000s, the party has distanced itself from positions now taken by the Social Democratic Party and has proposed larger semi-privatisations.
