Midrasian Chartism, sometimes referred to as simply Chartism is a variant of liberalism most prominent in Midrasia, but also present in a number of democracies throughout central Asura and other former Asuran colonies, particularly in Rennekka and Vestrim. The ideology is similar to classical liberalism in its promotion of civil liberties under the rule of law whilst emphasising strong economic freedoms with little intervention from the central state in the economy. Importantly however, Chartism is notable for its emphasis on retaining the role of the church for creating a moral society, as well as promoting a gradualist approach to democratisation, sometimes characterised as 'democracy from above' or 'gentry democracy'.
The term Chartist in Midrasia originally referred to anybody under the Old Republic who supported the creation of a Consitutional Charter to limit the power of the Consul whilst also empowering the legislature and codifying a set of rights and liberties enjoyed by all citizens. With the creation of a Midrasian constitution in 1791 the Chartist faction formed a new government under the leadership of Patrice Malouines creating the basis of an official Chartist Party which coalesced in the mid 1830s.
Though the Chartist Party of Midrasia collapsed during the 1870s its ideology and ideals continued to be upheld by a number of other political parties such as the Liberal League and the newly formed Republican Party. Ultimately, in 1902 with the creation of the 'New Political Settlement' which sought to end decades of political division and instability, the Chartist name was revived for the newly formed Chartist Bloc which now represents a wide spectrum of Midrasian centre-right to right-wing beliefs. Not all parties who subscribe to the bloc can be regarded as ideologically Chartist, however those which have historically been successful within the bloc adhere to policies compatable with traditional Chartism.
