In the 1980s, a conservative ideology emerged because people wanted to make changes to how things were run in the country. Conservatives believed in things like smaller government, lower taxes, and traditional family values. They thought these ideas would help make the country stronger and better for everyone. Some people were also worried about the changes happening in society, like with technology and culture, and wanted to go back to how things were before. So, conservative ideas became popular and gained a lot of support in the 1980s.
