==History==
===[[File:ProtoLib.png]] Proto-Liberalism [[File:Humanismpix.png]]===
Before the Enlightenment, classical thinkers such as [[File:Aristotle.png]] [[Scientocracy|Aristotle]] were considered proto-liberal for their support for private property in opposition to [[File:Platon.png]] [[Noocracy|Plato's]] collectivism, which is instead considered by liberals such as Karl Popper to be the precursor of totalitarianism.
The ancient Chinese writer [[File:Laozi.png]] [[Chinese Theocracy|Laozi]], founder of Taoism, has often been described as a libertarian who like liberals favored minimal government.
===[[File:Enlightenment.png]] Enlightenment [[File:JohnLocke.png]]===
<blockquote>''See: [[File:Enlightenment.png]] [[Enlightenment Thought]], [[File:Clib.png]] [[Classical Liberalism]]''</blockquote>
During the time of the Enlightenment which included the 17th and 18th centuries, a movement of scientists and philosophers going widespread all over Western Europe, [[file:JohnLocke.png]] [[Enlightenment Thought|John Locke]], an English philosopher and political theorist, who also contribute to medicine, revolutionized the system of liberty with his "Essay Concerning Human Understanding"
===[[File:Clib.png]] 19th Century [[File:Radlib.png]]===
<blockquote>''See: [[File:Clib.png]] [[Classical Liberalism]], [[File:Radlib.png]] [[Radicalism]], [[File:Nalib.png]] [[National Liberalism]], [[File:Georgist.png]] [[Georgism]]''</blockquote>
In the 19th century liberalism was strongly associated with the free market, laissez faire economics, opposition to absolutism and in some contexts with the national liberation struggle against the old imperialisms.
This era also saw, in the wake of American and French ideals, the progressive collapse of despotic influence in Europe and the spread, especially after 1848, of republicanism or at least of somewhat constitutional forms of government even in very reticent countries such as Austria-Hungary and the newly formed German Empire, which however maintained, despite the liberal and popular influence on the national unification movement, a semi-absolutist, militaristic, aristocratic and illiberal tradition in the wake of [[File:Bism.png]] [[Bismarckism|Prussianism]] (however the only significative exception that will remain firmly reactionary and anti-liberal will be the Russian Empire). The English, Portuguese and Spanish monarchies liberalized a lot (not without violence in the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberal_Wars second] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlist_Wars third] case), in Italy the Risorgimento itself was the result of moderate liberal ideas while France was forced to return to monarchism after the Congress of Vienna in 1815 but became a liberal monarchy with the July Revolution of 1830, then briefly democratic republic in 1848 immediately followed by the second (authoritarian) French empire of Napoleon III until defeat at Prussian hands and the establishment in 1870 of a third republic with liberal-conservative, radical and socialist elements.
In the new world, the [[File:Hamiltonianism.png]] [[Hamiltonianism|federalist]] conservatives lost their influence and dissolved at the beginning of the century, leaving the field open to the more liberal and agrarian [[File:Jeffersondem2.png]] [[Jeffersonian Democracy]], which would then evolve into [[File:Jacksonian Democracy.png]] [[Jacksonian Democracy]] (which was opposed by the American Whigs who, unlike their British counterparts, were much more conservative and protectionist), popular especially among slave-owning Southern Democrats, rigidly linked to economic liberalism, decentralization, [[File:Pop.png]] [[Populism|anti-elitism]], white male suffrage and Strict constructionism but which was ousted from power in 1860 with the election of the moderate Republican Lincoln with his centralization programs. After the Civil War, the Bourbon Democrats strove to maintain the typical ideals of classical liberalism in the USA and above all the gold standard in opposition to bimetallism.
As the century progressed, liberals, from their revolutionary and progressive origins, were moved further and further to the right of the political spectrum due to the emergence of socialism to its left, although [[File:Tradcon.png]] [[Classical Conservatism|conservatives]] remained further to the right. In the late 19th century a more left-wing and social justice-focused strain of liberalism emerged in the British Liberal Party leading to divisions in the party between classical liberals and those who would evolve into social liberals.

"Being all equal and independent, no one ought to harm another in his life, health, liberty, or possessions."
Liberalism (Lib) is a centrist (
generally center-libertarian leaning),
economically liberal and usually
culturally centrist to
left-leaning ideology (although there are also some
culturally right liberal ideologies like
Conservative Liberalism and
Reactionary Liberalism).
The elements generally regarded as necessary for the development of a liberal state can be described as follows:
Governmental respect for individual liberty
Ensured equality of opportunity under the law
A free and open-market economy
Constitutionally limited government power
The separation of religious and state power
Other elements often found in liberal societies are:
Liberalism is regarded as being one of the dominant ideologies within Western nations. He is also dominant in some countries in Africa, though most African countries are social democratic,
progressive,
conservative,
nationalist, and/or
authoritarian. There is little liberal influence in Asia, except in
Japan,
Taiwan,
the Philippines and
South Korea, as well as factions of the

Proto-Liberalism ![](//static.miraheze.org/polcompballwiki/7/7a/Humanismpix.png)
Before the Enlightenment, classical thinkers such as Aristotle were considered proto-liberal for their support for private property in opposition to
Plato's collectivism, which is instead considered by liberals such as Karl Popper to be the precursor of totalitarianism.
The ancient Chinese writer
Laozi, founder of Taoism, has often been described as a libertarian who like liberals favored minimal government.
Enlightenment ![](//static.miraheze.org/polcompballwiki/d/d1/JohnLocke.png)
During the time of the Enlightenment which included the 17th and 18th centuries, a movement of scientists and philosophers going widespread all over Western Europe, John Locke, an English philosopher and political theorist, who also contribute to medicine, revolutionized the system of liberty with his "Essay Concerning Human Understanding"

In the 19th century liberalism was strongly associated with the free market, laissez faire economics, opposition to absolutism and in some contexts with the national liberation struggle against the old imperialisms.
This era also saw, in the wake of American and French ideals, the progressive collapse of despotic influence in Europe and the spread, especially after 1848, of republicanism or at least of somewhat constitutional forms of government even in very reticent countries such as Austria-Hungary and the newly formed German Empire, which however maintained, despite the liberal and popular influence on the national unification movement, a semi-absolutist, militaristic, aristocratic and illiberal tradition in the wake of Prussianism (however the only significative exception that will remain firmly reactionary and anti-liberal will be the Russian Empire). The English, Portuguese and Spanish monarchies liberalized a lot (not without violence in the second and third case), in Italy the Risorgimento itself was the result of moderate liberal ideas while France was forced to return to monarchism after the Congress of Vienna in 1815 but became a liberal monarchy with the July Revolution of 1830, then briefly democratic republic in 1848 immediately followed by the second (authoritarian) French empire of Napoleon III until defeat at Prussian hands and the establishment in 1870 of a third republic with liberal-conservative, radical and socialist elements.
In the new world, the
federalist conservatives lost their influence and dissolved at the beginning of the century, leaving the field open to the more liberal and agrarian
Jeffersonian Democracy, which would then evolve into
Jacksonian Democracy (which was opposed by the American Whigs who, unlike their British counterparts, were much more conservative and protectionist), popular especially among slave-owning Southern Democrats, rigidly linked to economic liberalism, decentralization,
anti-elitism, white male suffrage and Strict constructionism but which was ousted from power in 1860 with the election of the moderate Republican Lincoln with his centralization programs. After the Civil War, the Bourbon Democrats strove to maintain the typical ideals of classical liberalism in the USA and above all the gold standard in opposition to bimetallism.
As the century progressed, liberals, from their revolutionary and progressive origins, were moved further and further to the right of the political spectrum due to the emergence of socialism to its left, although
conservatives remained further to the right. In the late 19th century a more left-wing and social justice-focused strain of liberalism emerged in the British Liberal Party leading to divisions in the party between classical liberals and those who would evolve into social liberals.

Just before the first world war, the developing countries, especially the United States along begins to develop from its one ideology, Woodrow Wilson, the president during that time uses Conservative Liberalism to justify the excuse the absence during the war where they can free trade until some country decide to attack. After the first world war, the popularity of Liberalism grew more with the rise of
Franklin Roosevelt, introducing Social Liberalism. And in awake of the Second World War, the rise even grew upon to the resistance inside the occupied countries by the Axis powers.

Since the downfall of the Soviet Union, Liberalism still going on strong to this very day. However, it has faced recent challengers, such as Chinese Neoconservatives,
Right-Populists,
Religious Fundamentalists, and
Authoritarian Leaders (Both the
Socialist,
Capitalist,
Progressive, and
Conservative variants). Liberalism still, however, is the vastly dominant ideology across the west, and
NATO, a relatively liberal organization, has continued growing.
Beliefs
Though liberalism is rather vaguely defined, and its definition alters depending on when and where the term is used, it is typically associated with values such as multiparty democracy,
personal freedom,
equality of opportunity,
secularism,
human progress,
international co-operation, and
open-market economics.
What separates Liberal Democracy from pure Classical Liberalism is its higher emphasis on
social justice and
equality in comparison to its predecessor. Liberal Democracy tends to support moderate means-tested
welfare targeted at the poor to make sure that people can meet their basic needs. He, also with his dad, Classical Liberal, influences a lot of other liberal ideologies.
Variants
Liberal Internationalism
![](http://static.miraheze.org/polcompballwiki/thumb/7/78/LiberalInternationalismFlag.png/220px-LiberalInternationalismFlag.png)
Liberal Internationalism is a foreign policy doctrine that argues that international organizations should achieve multilateral agreements between states that uphold rules-based norms and promote
liberal democracy through things like
humanitarian aid or
military intervention. It is defined by achieving global structures within international systems that are inclined towards promoting a liberal world order through things like
global free trade,
liberal economics, and
liberal political systems. These international organizations would include institutions like
NATO,
EU,
UN, and the
IMF.
Secular Liberalism
Secular liberalism is a form of liberalism in which
secularist principles and values, and sometimes non-religious ethics, are especially emphasised. It supports the separation of religion and state. Moreover, secular liberals are usually advocates of
liberal democracy and the open society as models for organizing stable and peaceful societies.
Cultural Liberalism
Cultural Liberalism is a social philosophy that expresses the social dimension of liberalism and favors the
freedom of individuals to choose to whether to conform to cultural norms. Although, commonly referred to as
social liberalism in the context of the United States, doesn't imply an ideology per say, and just the general attitude that individuals should be free to decide their own decisions regardless of the political ideology.
This follows the harm principle, as cultural liberals believe that society shouldn't impose any specific code of behaviour on individuals, they defend the moral rights of nonconformists to express their own identity however they see fit as long as they do not harm anyone else.
Liberal Democracy
![](http://static.miraheze.org/polcompballwiki/thumb/4/4c/LiberalDemocracyFlag.png/220px-LiberalDemocracyFlag.png)
Liberal Democracy is a combination of liberal political ideologies that operates under a
representative democratic form of government. It is characterized by elections between
multiple distinct political parties, the
separation of powers into various different branches of government, the
rule of law in everyday life as part of an open society, a
market economy with private property, the
equal protection of human rights,
civil liberties, and political freedoms for all people. This the most known and common type of democracy in the west, and is usually referred as just "
Democracy" in the west.
Authoritarian Liberal Democracy
See:
Illiberal Democracy
Authoritarian Liberal Democracy describes a hybrid regime combining elements from Liberal Democracy and
Authoritarianism. AuthLibDem governments entail power being concentrated in the hands of unaccountable officials—typically unelected
bureaucrats and
elected representatives who benefit from increased political apathy alike—which leads to a reduction in civil liberties. Local administrations, which tend to be the most democratic in the sense of high activity among citizens, end up being subservient to a
highly centralized government, increasing political apathy. Liberal institutions which are supposed to be impartial actors (e.g.,
courts) end up serving
partisan goals and their associated
special interest groups. AuthLibDem governments also empower
federal law enforcement agencies and routinely violate
civil or
constitutional rights (e.g., the Espionage Act and the Patriot Act, under
American Presidents
Woodrow Wilson and
George H.W. Bush, respectively). It can be argued AuthLibDem regimes combine technocratic and electocratic elements.
Personality
Liberalism is often shown getting easily angered or "triggered" by others and is shown to not be the biggest fan of violence. He is often schooled in debates.
However, he also has a wiser side that often acts philosophical. He advocates for the protection of individual liberty,
equality of opportunity, implementation of
limited government and the
opening of markets, and supports freedom for people like
gays,
women and
minorities.
How to Draw
Liberalism's design is based on a flag designed by u/Aransentin on r/neoliberal. The golden circle represents the world with the bars representing the invisible hand of the free market reaching around.
- Draw a ball with Eyes
- Make it blue (preferably (#006aa7) shade of blue)
- Draw a golden/yellow circle (#ffd700) and then make dents in it of the blue color. (Symbolizes the world being held by the invisible hand of the market)
You're done.

Frenemies
Progressivism - You and I have in the present and the past shared a passion for the liberation of the oppressed, yet at the same time

Ignore Pinochet's economics.Alt-Lite - Some of his supporters claim to hate me, yet many too also claim to be me? Bannon, however, is completely disgusting.

Right-Wing Populism - Most of you are delusional at best, however
Bernier with
Tice are pretty tolerable.
Kemalism - I am grateful to Atatürk for getting Fethi Okyar to found the Liberal Republican Party, but he was still too authoritarian regardless. Still better than Erdoğan, and at least modern Kemalists support me.

these guys
Panarchism - You claim to be the full realization of my ideals, but how could we possibly maintain liberty without a state to maintain the rule of law?
Tyrants
