'''Syncretism''' is a word used to describe any political alignment that draws from both sides of the traditional left-right political scale. The best example of this in modern times is [[National Bolshevism]], which is typically economically far-left, advocating for [[Socialism|proletarian socialism]], and culturally far-right, aligning with ultranationalism, traditionalism, or political [[Fascism]]. Not similar to [[MAGA Communism|conservative communism]], which is [[Marxism-Leninism]] with a socially conservative social stance.

Syncretism, also known as syncretic politics, is a term used by political scientists to describe a perceived phenomenon of socioeconomic centrism that formulates by merging social fascism with economic socialism. Political scientists often point to the National Bolshevik Party (NBP) as an example of syncretism, largely because the National Bolshevist movement promotes a form of Marxism-Leninism that is rooted in nationalism, although most National Bolshevists do not self-identity with the term.[1][2]
