		The political application of radical middle philosophy is represented by a cluster of loosely related terms and movements: radical middle, radical centrist, responsive communitarian, third-way, etc. As a relatively grass-roots movement, especially in the United States, there is no definitive statement of radical middle politics.
		The term radical middle appears to have been spontaneously invented by several different communities around the turn of the millennium, apparently in response to frustration with the violence of extremism and tepidness of temperance.
		While the term radical center has been used in various ways since at least the 1970s, it first had a major influence in the 1990s due to the Reform Party and Ross Perot, who were frequently described as representing the radical middle due to their attempts to partisanize those portions of the American electorate.

	Radical middle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Various groups have adopted "radical middle" as a term to describe a third way philosophy which includes their belief that, in affirming the core principles involved on both sides of a dilemma, the dilemma or disagreement can be rendered moot.
		Radical centrists can be found in both left-wing and right-wing political parties, but (like other centrists and independents) are usually penalized for being out of step with that party's dominant ideology.
		Radical centrists see themselves as building majority consensus for radical reforms by sidestepping (or confronting) what they consider the obsolete, polarized and non-productive ideologies of (social Conservatism/economic Liberalism) and (social Liberalism/economic Conservatism).

	Centrism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		In politics, centrism usually refers to the political ideal of promoting moderate policies which land in the middle ground between different political extremes.
		Most commonly, this is visualized as part of the one-dimensional political spectrum of Left-Right politics, with centrism landing in the middle between left-wing politics and right-wing politics.
		Centrism is important because it applies to very large swaths of the populace.

		Radical centrism is the generic term for a family of ideologies associated with Radical centrist politics.
		This focus on ideology is instark contrast to traditional centrism, which holds moderation as its primary value, and defines itself as the middle ground between competing positions.
		As a relatively grass-roots movement, especially in the United States,there is no definitive statement of radical centrism (ironically, radical centrism itself lacks a well-defined center!).

		This focus on ideology is in stark contrast to traditional centrism, which holds moderation as its primary value, and defines itself as the middle ground between competing positions.
		Radical centrists would defend their use of the term centrist by asserting that their principles represent the fusion of the best aspects of Conservatism and Liberalism, and thus interpolate at the level of philosophy rather than policy.

		The political application of radical middle philosophy is represented by acluster of loosely related terms and movements: radical middle, radical centrist, communitarian, third-way, etc. As a relatively grass-roots movement, especially in the United States, there is no definitive statement of radical middle politics.
		Radical centrists also have a tendency to be divisive, as opposed to the non-partisan approach of traditional centrism.
		This leads to many moderates questioning whether radical centrism deserves to be called centrist at all (perhaps analogous to how the Left and Right distance themselves from their respective self-described radical wings).

	Talk:Radical middle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the radical middle literature, I haven't seen any particular emphasis on 'civil rights' and 'referenda' -- at least by those names; the former smacks more of liberalism, and the latter of populism, neither of which is broadly accepted by those in the radical middle.
		Drernie, when I said that the 'radical middle' is not necessarily different in terms of goals than what people have called the 'sensible' middle, is that they also usually agree that solutions to an issue are something that deals with the arguments of both the left and right, and so are a compromise.
		And I think in some ways the radical middle could be considered the 'new liberals' against the status quo (and some 'progressives' look at themselves this way) but I don't think this is that important to define it that way, and it detracts from the issues (in fact i think it distorts the 'progressive' agenda).

	The politics of opportunism: the "radical left" in France Introduction: Trotskyism and Centrism
		Centrism developed in the 1930s as a decisive obstacle preventing workers from breaking with reformism and Stalinism.
		Centrism represented an adaptation to this requirement that in words tended towards revolution but in practice rejected a clean break with the reformist and Stalinist apparatuses.
		In France, there are thousands for whom this type of centrism has merely constituted a stage in their passage into the camp of the bourgeoisie and who today occupy leading positions in political and economic life.

	Centrism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Close and sometimes overlapping with centrism are the ideals of political liberalism (in the European sense), though this philosophy generally emphasizes the individual at the expense of the community, while centrists seek a balance between the two.
		For instance, the Independent Labour Party was seen as revolutionarily centrist because they were a radical formation moving towards a revolutionary position and had the potential to become a full fledged revolutionary party or at least have a large number of their members move towards an openly revolutionary position.
		Marxist Centrism is often opportunistic, since it argues for a revolution at some point in the future but urges reformist practices in the mean time.

	Charles Henry Riggs, III -- Random Thoughts
		The article went on to propose that in fact there are in America two forms of centrism prevalent today, -- that which the writer termed radical centrism and that which the writer termed sensible centrism.
		Then, of course, there was the other brand of centrism to which he referred, that of 'sensible centrism.' He adduced as his primary politician example that of Colin Powell, though to the best of my recollection the writer was less than forthcoming on suggested sensible centrist issues.
		Then there is a second brand of centrism which, while it was always present on our political scene, has gained a new power and influence as a result of the close balance in Congress between Democrats and Republicans; that ideological brand can be properly classifed as Classic or Old Centrism.

		Radical Centrism as described here is the brainchild of Ernest N. Prabhakar (S.B. '88, Ph.D. Caltech '95) of Elk Grove, California.
		Radical Centrism grew out of Dr. Ernie’s attempt to apply the intellectual rigor of physics and the spiritual values of his Christian upbringing to the reality of business in Silicon Valley.
		The latter is sometimes also known as Radical Centrist politics, with a meaning somewhat similar to that used here.

		Miller calls this agenda "radical centrism." What stands in its way, he argues, is partisan deadlock, in which both parties are about equally to blame.
		But it's a shame that someone as smart and decent as Miller thinks that liberal leadership means acquiescing to the right's salami tactics, and that he doesn't look more deeply into the actual politics or substance of policy.
		This brand of centrism is a recipe for continued shifts to the right.

		In a world often divided by competing truth claims, Radical Centrism seeks to build bridges based on effective understanding.
		In particular, I believe individuals, communities and systems find their greatest fulfillment (are most happy, healthy, and holy) when they seek to serve and honor others (i.e., practice humility, justice, and love), rather than merely protecting their own point of view.
		My passion is for this integration of personal, cultural, and structural change to help people become more whole and centered (centrist) by being properly rooted (radical) – hence the name.

		After tracing the development of multicultural education from the early 20th century to current theory and practice, the thesis identifies various models of multiculturalism in relation to American society in general, and higher education in particular.
		Whereas conservative approaches advocate maintenance of the status quo, radical centrist approaches tend to reverse rather than displace existing hierarchies.
		Yet, a variety of theoretical tenets and pragmatic strategies from the middle of the spectrum can be combined to formulate a substantive multiculturalism appropriate for conscious social reproduction.
