My thread below about political and intellectual conservatism, first and second order norms in politics, and ideology and philosophy of conservatism. Thanks to @JacobW982 for his excellent review which insipred the comments.👇

In his remarkable review (tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…) of our book I coedited with @DanJTPitt, @JacobW982 develops an interesting thesis, and attributes it to us. In what follows I introduce the thesis, and comment it. 1/x

In sum, we need both natural law norms and prudence. Giving too little weight to either leads to failure. 6/6

Finally, many of the limitations of British political conservatism arise from failure to welcome this more humble type of intellectual, and a consequent failure of this political conservatism to be informed by sound first-order political norms. 5/x

An important thread by @HorcherF on intellectual conservatism. A full response would require an entire paper, but briefly: 1) I agree that Oakeshott is not opposed to rationality in politics, just to 'abstract reason', which I gloss as reliance on propositional knowledge 1/x

A great effort by a bright young Oxford intellectual historian to show the big picture into which our book on British intellectual conservatism fits. Worth consulting, no matter on which side you find yourself in recent political debates.
