There have been other minor parties which may be perceived to be conservative or right wing in orientation on account of some of their policies, including the One Nation Party , Shooters Party and Pauline s United Australia Party , although many would not champion classical liberal approach to economics adopted by the Liberal Party. Conservative think tanks in Australia include Centre for Independent Studies , the H. R. Nicholls Society and the Menzies Research Centre .

Conservatives generally, but not exclusively, oppose the idea of Australia becoming a republic , changing the flag of Australia flag or removing perceived vestiges of Australia s Anglo Saxon legacy. Australia undertook significant economic reform under the centre left Australian Labor Party in the mid 1980s.

In epistemology , phenomenal conservatism PC holds that it is reasonable to assume that things are as they appear, except when there are positive grounds for doubting this. The term derives from the Greek word phainomenon , meaning appearance . The principle was initially defended in Huemer 2001, where it was formulated as follows If it seems to S as if p , then S thereby has at least prima facie justification for believing that p . A later formulation, designed to allow the principle to encompass inferential as well as foundational justification, reads as follows. If it seems to S that p , then, in the absence of defeaters, S thereby has at least some degree of justification for believing that p . Arguments for PC Phenomenal Conservatism has been defended on three grounds. First, the principle enables one to account for the justification of most, perhaps all, of the beliefs that we commonly take as justified, including sensory observations, memory beliefs, and beliefs based on reasoning. Second, it is argued that alternative epistemological positions are self defeating in the sense that, unless PC is true, few or no beliefs would be justified, including beliefs in any alternative epistemological theories. This is supported by the claims that all or nearly all beliefs are causally explained by appearances, that is, one believes a proposition because it seems true to one and that a belief is justified only if it is causally explained by a factor that constitutes justification for the proposition believed. Third, it is argued that PC is most faithful to the motivations underlying epistemological internalism . Criticisms of PC Critics of Phenomenal Conservatism have argued That the principle is overly liberal, making far too many beliefs count as justified. In particular, PC ... Conservatism.
