Definition: Anticonventionalism in political science is a position advocating for the continuation of traditional values, norms, and institutions within a society. It emphasizes the importance of preserving and maintaining these established structures to ensure stability and continuity. The aim of this approach is not to reject modernity or change, but rather to resist changes that threaten the fundamental principles upon which our societies are built. Anticonventionalism often involves a defense against modernization, as it seeks to maintain the status quo and prevent any significant changes
