Powellism
Powellism is the name given to the political views of Conservative and Ulster Unionist politician Enoch Powell. They derive from his High Tory and libertarian outlook.
== Overview ==
The word "Powellism" was, according to the Oxford English Dictionary, coined by ''The Economist'' on 17 July 1965. However the day before Iain Macleod had reviewed a book of Powell's speeches entitled ''A Nation Not Afraid'' in ''The Spectator'' in which he mentioned the word:
Enoch Powell has the finest mind in the House of Commons. The best trained and the most exciting. There is an attitude of mind which can be called "Powellism" and it is excellent that now we have the evidence collected in a book.〔Andrew Roth, ''Enoch Powell: Tory Tribune'' (London: Macdonald, 1970), p. 328.〕
The word was originally used to describe Powell's views on economics, and Powell offered his own definition: "(is ) an almost unlimited faith in the ability of the people to get what they want through peace, capital, profit and a competitive market".〔W. H. Greenleaf, ''The British Political Tradition. Volume II: The Ideological Heritage'' (London: Methuen, 1983), p. 320.〕
