Hmm, seems like you're up for a huge task! Well, I admire such ambition and dedication. If you're passionate about it, I don't see why you shouldn't do it, even if takes a lot of time. I'm interested on your thoughts about traditional conservatism, so I'll be looking out for these posts :)

In the past I did a series of posts on Libertarian Socialism, but that was much easier because most of the ideas were still fresh in my mind. This series will definitely be harder to put together. It may be hard to believe, but there is actually a lot of common ground between libertarian socialism and traditional conservatism. They do discuss a lot of the same problems, but come up with different solutions. Socialism embraced industrialization (socialized production) and looked to socializing ownership as a way of solving the problems it brought. (Cf. Engel's Socialism: Utopian and Scientific) Traditional conservatism, however, really was more medievalist and sought to "turn back the clock" and cling to the old ancient ways. Distributism might actually be seen as a middle way between socialism and conservatism, trying to preserve the best of both worlds.
