Civic Conservative PartyThe Civic Conservative Party (in Slovak: Občianska konzervatvna strana, OKS) is one of the minor parties in Slovakia. It survives, although it is only supported by a very small fraction of the public. Issues The OKS characterizes itself as a party of reforms. According to its platform, it rejects: It respects the historical memory as a part of the national cultural identity and thus rejects lining up behind autocracy, communism and fascism. The stated aim of the OKS is to pursue the system of European conservative values such as consistency, veracity, fairness, honesty, respectability, solidarity, and observance of written and non-written treaties and agreements. Some of reforms in present-day Slovakia are based on OKS's ideas. Members The OKS is a party of intellectuals. Many intellectuals gave it their support in the legislative elections of 2002. The majority of the public in Slovakia, however, doesn't even know that OKS exists. It is a club of intellectuals trying to affect the society from behind the scenes. OKS's current leader is Peter Tatr. František Šebej and Peter Osusk are among the other important members. The OKS supported František Mikloško, a candidate of the Christian Democratic Movement in the presidential elections of 2004. Mikloško was one of the few candidates without a communist history.
