Subjects: CHRISTIAN conservatism, PRIVATE property, IMAGE of God, POLITICAL systems, THEOLOGY, FREEDOM of religion
Abstract (English): Introduction: The article proposes a reading of Christian conservatism based on two theoretical foundations: Christian theology and classical liberalism. Objective: a treatise of Christian conservative principles is proposed, coming from an analytical-historical review of case studies, and from the argumentative use of political and economic philosophical roots. Reflection: Christian conservative thought proposes three clear ideas: (i) the Imago Dei, as the basis for human rights, among the most important of which are life, liberty and private property; (ii) the depravity of the human being and the denial of the good savage, which constitutes the root for the construction of systems of controls in democratic political models; (iii) fair trade, proposed not as the redistribution of income or resources, but composed of effort and responsibility. Conclusions: the three ideas, namely: human rights, political systems with checks and balances, and fair trade, are transversal to the historical construction of the modern west and are transversal to liberal democracies.

Abstract (Spanish): Introducción: El artículo propone una lectura del conservadurismo cristiano basado en dos fundamentos teóricos: la teología cristiana y el liberalismo clásico. Objetivo: se propone un tratado de principios conservadores cristianos que provienen de una revisión analíticohistórica de los casos de estudios, y del uso argumentativo de las raíces filosóficas políticas y económicas. Reflexión: el pensamiento conservador cristiano propone tres ideas claras: (i) el Imago Dei, como base para los derechos humanos, entre los más importantes están la vida, la libertad y la propiedad privada; (ii) la depravación del ser humano y la negación del buen salvaje, lo que constituye la raíz para la construcción de sistemas de controles en los modelos políticos democráticos; (iii) el comercio justo, propuesto no como la redistribución de los ingresos o los recursos, sino compuesto por el esfuerzo y la responsabilidad. Conclusiones: las tres ideas, a decir: los derechos humanos, sistemas políticos con contrapesos, y el comercio justo, son transversales a la construcción histórica de Occidente moderno, y son transversales a las democracias liberales.

Abstract (Portuguese): Introdução: O artigo propõe uma leitura do conservadorismo cristão com base em dois fundamentos teóricos: a teologia cristã e o liberalismo clássico. Objetivo: propõe-se um tratado de princípios conservadores cristãos a partir de uma revisão histórico-analítica de estudos de caso e do uso argumentativo de raízes filosóficas políticas e econômicas. Reflexão: o pensamento conservador cristão propõe três ideias claras: (i) a Imago Dei, como base para os direitos humanos, entre os quais os mais importantes são a vida, a liberdade e a propriedade privada; (ii) a depravação do ser humano e a negação do bom selvagem, que é a raiz para a construção de sistemas de controle em modelos políticos democráticos; (iii) o comércio justo, proposto não como redistribuição de renda ou recursos, mas composto de esforço e responsabilidade. Conclusões: todas as três ideias, a saber, direitos humanos, sistemas políticos com freios e contrapesos e comércio justo, são transversais à construção histórica do Ocidente moderno e são transversais às democracias liberais.
