Riverism

Riverism is a right-wing liberal-conservative ideology and political movement, started by Uruguayan politician Pedro Manini Ríos and based on the figure of General Fructuoso Rivera, the first president of Uruguay.

Riverism was born in a context of opposition to the reformist policies promoted by José Batlle y Ordóñez, as an attempt to return to the "original" traditions of the Colorado Party and to counter an alleged socialist takeover of the organization.^[1]

Riverism is a conservative ideology, close to classical liberalism and radically opposed to statism.^[2]

The official riverist press media was the newspaper "La Mañana", which is still in activity.^[1]
