Is there such a thing as conservative communism? What I mean is a form of communism that maintains socialist economic policies while taking a traditionalist stance on social and cultural matters. My understanding is that Stalinism was close to fitting this description, but that the modern Communist Party of the Russian Federation is also socially conservative as were the Western communist parties in France and Italy prior to the ‘70s.
