| | Liberalism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The fundamental principles of liberalism include transparency, individual and civil rights, especially the right to life, liberty, and property; government with the consent of the governed as determined by open and fair elections (liberal democracy); and equal rights for all citizens under law. | | | Key liberals of this persuasion, such as John Dewey, John Maynard Keynes, Winston Churchill, and Franklin D. Roosevelt, argued for the creation of a more elaborate state apparatus to serve as the bulwark of individual liberty, permitting the continuation of capitalism without resorting to totalitarianism. | | | Liberalism is an ideology, or current of political thought, which strives to maximize individual liberty through a democratic system of rights under law. |

| | Is neo-liberalism a "neo-reformism" theory? |
| | That's the principle of the 'New Deal' elaborated by the American administration of Franklin Roosevelt: the government supports the demand to avoid the decline. | | | The break-out of the economic crisis in 1973 ushers in a new stage of the general crisis of capitalism. | | | This provides it the appearance to be new. |

| | “New Liberalism” |
| | Though the elements of Tocqueville’s “new liberalism” are neither new nor political, historical or ideological, their synthesis with a supreme valuation of liberty, that is, the belief that self-government is the supreme good, is indeed new. | | | This is the basis of Tocqueville’s “new liberalism.” | | | Hence he considers respect for justice, love of law and order, and commitment to morality and religion as a foundation that is new to liberalism. |

| | Reader's Companion to American History - -LIBERALISM |
| | Given the liberal majorities in both houses of Congress, the primary opposition to the New Deal came from the federal courts. | | | Liberalism became increasingly associated not with a broad majoritarian politics but with a court-imposed politics, whether dealing with racial and gender quotas or with pollution control standards. | | | After Roosevelt's death and the end of World War II, American liberalism became characterized by a defense of the mildly redistributive welfare state that emphasized equalizing, at least for whites, the possibilities of opportunity. |

| | Liberalism |
| | Liberal political theory, then, fractures over the conception of liberty. | | | This theme is central to contemporary American liberalism, which combines strong endorsement of civil and personal liberties with, at best, an indifference, and often enough an antipathy, to private ownership. | | | For classical liberals liberty and private property are intimately related. |

| | But, to the liberal voters who would choose the party's nominee, he became a more electable Dean. | | | When The New York Times asked delegates to this summer's Democratic and Republican conventions which issues were most important, only 2 percent of Democrats mentioned terrorism, compared with 15 percent of Republicans. | | | And, when Truman proposed extending the principle to the Third World, calling in his 1949 inaugural address for "a bold new program for making the benefits of our scientific advances and industrial progress available for the improvement and growth of underdeveloped areas," it was congressional Republicans who resisted the effort. |

| | This volume presents nine essays—by five political scientists, three economists, and a historian—that critically evaluate the vision and analyses in Murakami’s book by focusing on his two key contributions. | | | The volume also contains, as appendixes, two essays that further a more complete understanding of Murakami’s book: a brief summary of Murakami’s “new economics,&; his replacement for neoclassical economics, and a discussion of England as the first developmentalist success. | | | The first is “polymorphic liberalism,” a new type of liberalism that reflects the needs of both developed and developing economies and the realities of the diversity of cultures; the second is “developmentalism,” a long-term, multifaceted policy intervention in catch-up economic growth. |
