    Isn’t that authoritarian VS liberal?

    While the overlap between liberal and left, and authoritarian and right is pretty big, we have some exceptions, like USSR and China.

    I don’t know of any liberal right government myself, but I think there should be some examples.

      Authoritarianism is far right along the spectrum, and liberalism is center, center-right or center-left depending on the specific tenets set by the movement. (There are multiple liberalisms out there.)

      Neoliberalism as practiced by the US Democratic Party and the UK Labor Party is right wing.
