Klausism

Klausism is a term used to describe the political positions of Václav Klaus, former Prime Minister and President of the Czech Republic. It was first used by Mirek Topolánek, who considers Klausism the official ideology of the Civic Democratic Party. This term was also used by Jan Kasl. Klaus does not take issue with the term. The current usage of the term Klausism is distant from its origin, which engendered the phrase "Klausism without Klaus". Though Klausism primarily refers to the political ideology, it is frequently used as a label for the neologisms invented by Klaus.

Klaus himself used term "Mental Scheme of ODS" which he allegedly invented by chance. This term was also used by Jan Kasl.

Klaus is known for his euroscepticism, Global warming denial, opposition to Homosexualism and support of Capitalism and free trade. Klaus's stances are often described as Liberal Conservative combined with National liberalism and Nationalism. Jan Pauer described Klaus's political synthesis as combination of "Friedmanite Monetarism, Thatcherite economic libertarianism, Czech National conservatism and leadership pragmatism. Klaus described himself as Liberal, Conservative and Pragmatist.

Bohumil Doležal believes that Klausism is about "fighting against isms." It is opposition to Environmentalism, Humanrightism, Pro-Europeanism, NGOism or Homosexualism. It is opposition to trends in western politics. Doležal described it as "fight against democracy un-chained." Klausism is, according to Doležal, a fight for realistic politics that solve problems and doesn't serve dogmatic ideologies.. Doležal stated stated that Klausism itself became one of these Isms.

Ekonom Magazine likened in 2011 Klausism to Gaullism to which it is very similar according to the magazine. Both ideologies support strong position of President but in the case of Klaus it is informal and balancing at the edge of Constitution.
