Activationism, also known as national activationism or Steenism, is a political ideology that developed in Keppland during the early 20th century. The ideology is broadly characterized by populist rhetoric, an expansive view of property rights, state support for churches and other traditional social institutions, a futurist outlook, and opposition to electoral democracy. Political scientists often describe activationism as a syncretic movement, and supporters of the ideology claim to reject conventional left- and right-wing politics.

The philisophical foundation of activationism is rooted in the enlightened absolutism of Mats I, who ruled Keppland as Emperor from 1840 to 1852. In the aftermath of the Great Collapse, Henrik Steen seized power in a military coup d'état and served as President until 1935. Steen was heavily influenced by Emperor Mats, whose reputation as a benevolent dictator had resulted in a wave of nostalgia for imperial Keppland during the early 20th century. Activationism was banned under the Kepplandic Council Republic, but reemerged as a major political movement after the X Revolution. In the 2010 elections, X of the National Activationist Party was elected as Keppland's first openly activationist president since 1935.

Activationism considers private property to be the ultimate expression of human liberty, and views the right to property as both a negative and positive right. As such, the state has a responsibility to not only defend the rights of the people from infringement, but to actively ensure equitable access to property ownership through non-invasive welfare programs and support for churches, charities, and other social institutions. Activationism also rejects liberal democracy, which it considers to be ineffective and easily manipulated by the malign influence of elites.  Instead, activationists advocate for a strong and authoritative state apparatus that is compelled to act in the interests of the people by the threat of rebellion from an armed citizenry.
