regressivism

A political ideology aimed at rolling back societal progress, mainly where social justice and equal rights are concerned. It can be opposed to any background, class, creed, ethnicity, gender, language, nation, race, religion, sex, etc. Usually specific to the region, society and time. Often confused with conservatism. Whereas conservatism attempts to prevent new social change, regressivism aims to reverse existing change entirely. Regressivists often hide under the incorrect label of conservatism which has the effect of sanitizing their beliefs.
