National Liberalism
Not to be confused with Liberal Nationalism or National Libertarianism.
"John Calhoun, if you secede from my nation I will secede your head from the rest of your body."
National Liberalism, also known as Nationalist Liberalism, is an economically center-right to right-wing, civically center to moderately libertarian, culturally center to right-wing with few exceptions and nationalist ideology that is the child of Classical Liberalism and Nationalism. Historically he was best friends with his brother Radicalism when the old aristocracy controlled Europe from Berlin, Paris and Vienna, disregarding national identities in order to suppress republicanism. This led to a natural convergence of Nationalism and Radicalism because in order to establish democratic republics, the Radicals needed to secure the independence of their nation. National Liberalism in recent times has befriended Civic Nationalism, while historically he friends with Cultural Nationalism and even Ethnonationalism though he is still friends with Cultural Nationalism in many parts of the world.
In contrast to National Conservatism, he is generally more supportive of welfare, although in a chauvinist manner, as well as being in favor of civil liberties on social issues such as LGBT rights (he often still drops the 'T'), drug use, prostitution, pornography, euthanasia and abortion, although there is a large amount of them that holds pro-life and traditional family/marriage stances. NatLib may be very nationalistic when it comes to topics like immigration, international law and regulations.
European Natlibs generally have a special dislike for Islam, seeing many followers of it as terrorist sympathisers and opposed to "Western" concepts of Secularism and minority rights. Although European Natlibs attack Muslims for their percieved opposition to tolerating those with different beliefs or acts, often proclaiming themselves to be defending women and minorities, their fierce opposition to Social Justice leads many to verbally abuse and even dox those dubbed or self proclaim to be Social Justice Warriors".
It's important to know that national conservative parties which hold economically liberal views are not National Liberal, even though at first they were (and to some extent, still are) closely related usually sharing the same spaces in political groups and parties.
Variants
NatLib can be divided into 2 ideologies: National Conservative Liberalism (NatConLib) and Classical Liberal Nationalism (ClassLibNat). NatConLibs emphasize on traditional values, strong borders and rejecting progressivism, while having liberal views when it comes to economics. To the contrary, ClassLibNats may have some progressive views but in general, they are liberals first, nationalists second.

Lincolnism
Lincolnism is the ideology of the 16th president of the Untied States Abraham Lincoln. Lincolnism was defined by a strong desire for constitutional equality, and the abolition of slavery, as well high tariffs, and is generally more authoritarian than most other variants of national liberalism and is more culturally centrist. Lincolnism's idea of abolition is based on the idea that slavery should be abolished, and that blacks should aquire more rights (but not be made completely equal to whites). Lincolnism is perhaps regarded as one of the most influential variants of national liberalism alongside Gaulism as it changed the course of the United States and also changed the way America functions as a nation today.

Taiwan DPPism
The Democratic Progressive Party is a culturally progressive, economically center-right nationalistic party in the Republic of China and the ruling party of this country since 2016. It is one of two major parties in Taiwan, the other being Kuomintang. DPP promotes Taiwanese national identity , preservation of local languages like Taiwanse Hokkien, Hakka and other indigenous languages and most importantly, the creation of an independent Taiwanese nation and the abolish of ROC, which is opposed to KMT's Chinese identity promotion (which regards Taiwan as part of China) and their ultimate goal of reunification with China.
Their overall cultural progressivism and support for welfare programs and internationalization makes them differ from many other National Liberal partiesand closer to Third Way Liberalism. In addition, they also actively promote a Taiwanese identity based on Civic Nationalism. This tendency was related to the nation's White Terror history and the repression against Taiwanese identity and liberal values during said period.
In 2018, Tsai Ing-wen suggested a political framework which dictates which values that are deemed acceptable and recognized in Taiwan, known as Taiwanese Values, which emphasizes on these principles based on Universalism: Democracy, Liberty, Diversity, Openness, Rule of Law, Human Rights, Social Welfare, and Sustainability. Due to the overuse of concept and DPP's hostility toward any dissent, Many politicians and netizens who criticize the DPP will use it as a pejorative and satirical term, especially the Pan-Blue Coalition, for instance "Taiwanese Values Idiom Classes" launched by Taiwan People's Party Fans Club to mock the DPP administration[20], or calling someone whose political views did not align with the Pan-Green coalition "Lack of Taiwanese Values" satirically.
Russia
- Alexei Navalny was an anti-Putin activist and the leader, as well as co-founder of Russia of the Future party. They have expressed support for economic liberalization, privatization of state enterprises, prohibition of state-owned media outlets, ending censorship, right to posses firearms, legalisation of same-sex marriage and abolition of military conscription, but also anti-immigrant, anti-Islamic, anti-georgian[21] and ukrainophobic stances[22], with him justifying Russia's intervention in Georgia and the annexation of Crimea.
However, Navalny has condemned the recognition of Donetsk and Luhansk People's Republics by the Russian government, and the subsequent invasion of Ukraine by Russian forces.[23]
History
Origin
To many people's surprise, National Liberalism has been around for some time now as his origin can be dated back to 19th century's Central Europe, noticeably within modern day Germany and Austria, where liberal supporters were often also the advocators of nationalistic ideas such as the creation of German state. In fact, some of today's German political parties can trace their roots directly to National Liberal Party, the first political party which was officially build around such ideology.
Development
Today, while not many central-to-right liberal political parties or their factions officially announce their ideology as National Liberalism (keep that in mind, as most of them commonly identify as Right-Populist or National Conservative with economically liberal views), its ideas and practices can still be seen in many of them. While not all of them have the similar opinion or practices on issues such as environment (although most of them are not that pro-industrialist as their earlier counterparts) or LGBT+ rights, they still share some noticeable characters such as importance of national identity, stricter immigration laws, anti-globalization and limited state intervention/cooperation with private departments. Some modern anti-globalization political movements are also often categorized as National Liberal, with Brexit as perhaps the most noticeable example.
Austria
Third Camp is a term used in Austria for pan-Germanist national liberals, in contrast to the country's other two major political forces: Christian Democrats (ÖVP) and Social Democrats (SPÖ). Today, the main representative of this tradition is the Freedom party of Austria. Historically FPÖ was a center-right party and had liberal stances, despite the fact that it was founded by former Nazis. Its former leader Norbert Steger wanted it to be the Austrian version of German Free Democratic Party. However since 1986 the party became more populist and shifted to the far-right, becoming primarily national conservative under the leadership of Jörg Haider. Some liberal factions still exist inside of it.
The Alliance for the Future of Austria is a party founded by Jörg Haider, self-described as right-liberal and part of the third camp, the party is viewed by the people as a "moderate FPÖ", being in favour of same-sex marriage, abolishing mandatory military conscription, economic liberalism, semi-direct democracy, soft euroscepticism and hardline stances against illegal and mass immigration.
During Sebastian Kurz's first chancellorship, he enacted a combination of policies that can be broadly denominated as "national conservative liberal" - he rejected the global pact for migration, reduction in social spending, tax cuts, augmentation of legal working hours , mandatory German language classes, ban of headscarves in certain places, repeal of the general smoking ban and opposition to nuclear weapons. Is worth to mention that the Third Camp influenced various secessionists parties and movements in South Tyrol being the first of them called the short-lived Freedom Party of South Tyrol, many of this parties have a friendly relation with the FPÖ.
Brazil
Denmark
The Progress Party is a national liberal/libertarian party founded in 1972. It gained national popularity after it's leader Mogens Glistrup paid 0% of income taxes. The party's platform advocated for radical tax cuts, abolition of the income tax all together and reduction of bureaucracy. In the 1973 Danish election, they got 15.9% of the vote and became the second largest party in parliament. In the 80s, the party's platform moved towards nationalism, taking anti-immigration and anti-islam stances. Over the years, the party kept on losing seats and popularity due to constant infighting within it, till becoming extraparliamentary in 2001. With a large chunk of it's members moving onto the Danish People's Party, which unlike Progress Party is more supportive of the country's welfare state while still taking a strongly nationalist position on Immigration and Islam.

Germany
In Germany, the National Liberal Party was a major force in the Reichstag during the mid-19th century and was a strong supporter of Chancellor Otto von Bismarck's policies until he started to advocate for Protectionism in 1890's. The party emphasized on the power of state, civil liberties and the economy, but since the 1870's the party has been in decline.
During the interwar period, the German People's Party can be seen as a spiritual successor to NLP. They focused on traditional family values, lower tariffs, opposition to welfare spending and hostility towards Marxism (more specifically, towards social democrats and communists). It was one of the largest liberal parties alongside its rival, German Democratic Party.
In modern times, the Free Democratic Party as well as Alternative for Germany have some national liberal factions[24][25].
The short-lived Blue Party was founded by an ex-AfD member Frauke Petry and was a party for those who thought that CDU was too liberal and AfD was too nationalist. The party did not receive any seats in local and federal parliaments.
Israel
Likud (The Consolidation) is a major party in Israel that has its roots in Ze'ev Jabotinsky's Revisionist Zionism, as well as in liberal and nationalist ideology. Immediately after the creation of Israel, the Herut (Freedom) party was founded, which was joined in 1961 by the Libralim organization (Liberals) in the Gahal electoral bloc, which was the main force of the opposition.
In economic policy, the party advocates for economic liberalism (as it is a traditional rival to the Labor Party), but also for a very pronounced nationalist rhetoric. On paper they advocate for free market capitalism, but in practise they have adopted a mixed economy.
In cultural policy, the party advocates both free enterprise and nationalism, but sometimes it compromises these ideals in practice because the support for populist economic programs does not meet these ideals. But it is designed to serve voters who are mostly nationalists, low-income and live in small towns and urban neighborhoods.
In more recent times, the party has shifted more towards populism.
Many former Likud MK's have founded splinter parties, such as Kadima (Forward) and New Hope.

Myanmar
- Aung San Suu Kyi is the youngest daughter of Aung San, Father of the Nation of modern-day Myanmar, and Khin Kyi, and would live to become the figurehead of her country's pro-democracy movement against Tatmadaw, Myanmar's Military Junta which has ruled the country since the 1960s. Aung San Suu Kyi lived and studied in the UK in the 1960s and 1970s where she met and married British historian Michael Aris in 1972, with whom she had two children.
Coincidentally, when Aung San Suu Kyi returned to Burma in 1988, the long-time military leader of Burma and head of the ruling party, General Ne Win, stepped down after nearly 30 years of dictatorial military rule. Mass demonstrations for democracy followed that event on 8 August 1988, which were violently suppressed in what came to be known as the 8888 Uprising. The 8888 Uprising led to Aung San Suu Kyi's rise to prominence as she addressed half a million people at a mass rally in front of the Shwedagon Pagoda in the capital, calling for the transition to liberal democracy. However, in September 1988, a new military junta took power.
Aung San Suu Kyi became the General Secretary of the National League of Democracy, NLD, which she had newly formed with the help of several retired and defected army officials. Unfortunately, in 1989, she was put under house arrest by the Tatmadaw. Former Prime Minister U Nu attempted initiated to form an interim government made up of opposition leaders, with the support of the Indian government under Rajiv Gandhi. However, Aung San Suu Kyi, rejected U Nu's plan as she resonated that change had to come within Burma by the Burmese people.
In 1990, the military junta called a general election, in which the National League for Democracy (NLD) received 59% of the votes, guaranteeing NLD 80% of the parliament seats. However, the results were nullified as the military refused to hand over power to civilian rule, resulting in an international outcry and Aung San Suu Kyi was placed under house arrest at her home in Rangoon. During her time under house arrest she would achieve worldwide fame and admiration similar to other famous democracy activists such as Nelson Mandela, Mikhail Gorbachev, and Vaclav Havel and was awarded the Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought in 1990, and the Nobel Peace Prize one year later.
Her house arrest would last for nearly two decades and finally in 2010 with the help of the Obama Administration, she was released and planned to run for the presidency in Myanmar's 2015 elections. The NLD won the 2015 elections, however, as the 2008 Constitution states anyone married to a person who was not a citizen of Myanmar would be barred from running for the office of president, a new office was created for Aung San Suu Kyi, the "State Counsellor" to circumvent this inconvenience set up by the military. As State Counsellor of Myanmar would Aung San Suu Kyi would free and grant amnesty to many political prisoners that had been detained under the Tatmadaw regime.
However, the Tatmadaw had not given up on power since the 2008 Consitution referendum, and maintained a high degree of influence over Burmese politics, thus preventing any true transition to liberal democracy. Aung San Suu Kyi was forced to concede to appease the Tatmadaw which made her time as State Counselor a disappointing one for international observers and many of her past supporters who had expected her to solve Myanmar's problems and internal conflicts. Freedom of the press didn't improve under her watch and Myanmar remained a dangerous place for journalists.
Aung San Suu Kyi became notorious for her silence and lack of effort in stopping the persecution and genocide of Rohingya people in Myanmar, carried out by the Tatmadaw and Buddhist extremist monks.
On 1 February 2021, Aung San Suu Kyi was arrested and deposed by the Myanmar military led by General Min Aung Hlaing, along with other leaders of her National League for Democracy (NLD) party, after the Myanmar military declared the November 2020 general election results fraudulent.
Netherlands
Pim Fortuyn was a Dutch politician and author, originally a Marxist and then a social democrat, his views ended up closer to classical liberalism. He rose to prominence because of his criticism of the purple coalition government of Wim Kok and the "Islamification" of the Netherlands. Despite being labelled as far-right by opponents, Fortuyn portrayed himself as a defender of civil liberties and liberal values against Islam such as LGBT and women rights, with him being openly gay. In 2002 he was assassinated by a left-wing environmentalist activist, becoming sort of a martyr for the Dutch right, his ideology and persons also influenced right-liberals parties in Flemish Belgium .
In 2006 right-populist Geert Wilders emerged as a successor to Fortuyn. Founding the Party for Freedom (PVV), an even more overtly anti-islam party, with Wilders outright calling it a "fascist religion". Like Fortuyn, Wilders has described himself as a " right-wing liberal" and a defender of gay and women's rights against Islam. But since the early 2010s he seems to have diverted from economic liberalism and now voices more support for welfare state programs, abit restricted to born-Dutch citizens, which commentators have described as Welfare Chauvinism.
More recently, the party Forum for Democracy (FvD) originally attracted similar national liberal factions who found PVV "too extremist", while also having roots in Fortuynism. However as of late, a majority of them have now left due to the party having more closer ties to the Alt-Right and Neo-Nazis, going off to form splinter parties such as JA21, a Conservative Liberal/National Liberal party founded by Joost Eerdmans, a former Lijst Pim Fortuyn member.
Norway
Progress Party (originally Anders Lange's Party for a Strong Reduction in Taxes, Duties and Public Intervention) was founded in 1973 as an anti-tax movement inspired by Mogen Gilstrup's party of the same name.
Erik Gjems-Onstad, an anti-Nazi ex-combatant was also a member of this party and took the leadership of the party after Lange's death, but abandoned the party in 1976. After that he was in different Right-nationalists parties until 2007. He advocated for stricter immigration laws and reduction of it specially from islamic one (being his main topic in his whole political career), at the same time he advocated for the abolition of conscription, separation of the church and state, liberalization of gun possession and also fewer regulations and taxes. Nowdays the party have a Libertarian faction and a National conservative, in his declaration of principles it states to adhere to popular liberalism.
Romania
The original National Liberal Party (PNL) was founded in 1875 and was a major political force in Romania before the outbreak of WW2. It supported the local bourgeoisie, seeking to expand the Romanian industry through government subsidies and a protectionist trade policy.
In 1930, PNL-Brătianu, or "Georgists" (named after Gheorghe I. Brătianu, not him) split from the larger PNL. Georgists were against PNL's protectionist and interventionist policies and advocated for economic liberalism. PNL-Tătărescu was founded in 1944, but not much is known about it.
The modern National Liberal Party is mostly liberal conservative with a national liberal faction within it.
In addition, in Moldova, most pro-European and liberal parties are in support of unification with Romania, rejecting the Moldovan identity (more or less, similar to Third Camp groups in Austria), seeing it as a tool of Russian influence.
Sweden
New Democracy was a political party in Sweden which managed to gain a relatively big following in the 90's. The party was most well-known for its nationalist policies, which was shunned in Sweden at that time. This included limiting immigration, although this was primarily done for economic reasons rather than ethnic or cultural. Other positions that the party held were those of economic liberty, law & order, and a push for Sweden to join the EU.
Taiwan
The Democratic Progressive Party is a culturally progressive, economically center-right nationalistic party in the Republic of China and the ruling party of this country since 2016. It is one of two major parties in Taiwan, the other being Kuomintang.

United Kingdom
The Patriot Whigs were a split group from the Whig party from 1725 to 1803 founded by William Pulteney in opposition to the government of Robert Walpole, especially for his foreign policy.
UK Independence Party or UKIP for short, is a hard Eurosceptic party famously led by Nigel Farage. Initially it was more in line with Classical Liberalism and right-libertarian leanings in terms of economics and civic liberties, while having a strongly nationalist view on British culture. Thatcherism had a strong influence on the party's ideology. However after Farage stepped down as leader, the party moved even more towards Ultranational Liberalism and the Alt-Lite.
Reform UK (formerly Brexit Party) was founded by Nigel Farage as a spiritual successor to UKIP, after the far-right takeover of the party. The party is closer to UKIP's original roots, describing itself as "classical liberal" in its constitution.
Powellism is an economically right-wing (but also welfarist), culturally center-right, and highly nationalistic ideology, based on the political beliefs of former Conservative and later Ulster Unionist MP, Enoch Powell.
Powell was most well-known from his anti-immigration rhetoric (in particular his warnings of ‘Rivers of Blood’ if immigration continued ‘en masse’). He was also a White Nationalist- claiming that those descended from Caribbean and Asian immigrants did ‘not, by being born in England, become an Englishman. In law he becomes a United Kingdom citizen by birth; in fact he is a West Indian or an Asian still.’
Although he had previously held imperialist views (with an ambition to become Viceroy of India), upon Indian independence he decided the entire British Empire must go alongside it. Britain should, in the eyes of Powell, return to the period of ‘ splendid isolation’. He opposed Britain being involved in international organisations and alliances, particularly with the United States, which he accused of destroying the British Empire and seeking to re-unify Ireland in order to ensure its membership of NATO. Powell’s anti-Americanism was so strong that he even saw the Soviet Union as a potential ally for Britain in countering American influence in Europe (despite Powell himself being pro-capitalist).
As mentioned above, Powell was generally pro-capitalist and pro-free market in the sphere of economics. He believed that business interests should be looked after by the people that best understood them – in Powell’s view, this was businessmen and not politicians. He was the first major UK politician to call for de-nationalision of public services in the 1960s. However, while Powell was very much a monetarist, at the same time he also supported the welfare state and trade unions.
With regards to social views, Powell was conservative in terms of his support for the maintenance of monarchy, established religion and hereditary peers in governance. However, on other issues he was liberal/libertarian- he opposed the death penalty and corporal punishment while supporting no-fault divorce and other aspects of the ‘ permissive society’ established by Labour Governments. He also voted to decriminalise homosexuality as he did not regard "it as a proper area for the criminal law to operate".
United States
Proto-Trumpism is based on Donald Trump's beliefs during the 2000 presidential election. Trump sought the nomination of the Reform Party which was beginning to collapse at the time. Some of Trump's positions were similar to his 2016 campaign such as lowering taxes, eliminating the federal debt, opposing NAFTA, increasing pressure on China, increasing military spending, and getting tough on crime. In contrast, Trump also supported universal healthcare and gun control reform. Trump named Oprah Winfrey as his ideal running mate and got into a heated rivalry with Pat Buchanan, the other main candidate for the Reform Party. Trump attacked Buchanan for his anti-Semitic and homophobic views as well as calling him a "Neo-Nazi" and a "Hitler lover".
Personality
NatLib's favorite hobby is discussing political events (especially if it's something "dumb" done by progressives — although he does take some of their advice from time to time) on YouTube or other online communities, usually with other right-wing ideologies.
While being fairly open minded to some social issues, he often holds rather suspicious attitude toward people that are not his citizens. His preferences of anti-globalization and stricter immigration laws, as well as his sympathy towards more far-right Ideologies often brought him to conflicts with his more central-to-left relatives, especially Neoliberalism. His relationship with National Conservatism can be sometimes a bit too tenacious nonetheless he still considers him an important and valuable ally,his best friends are Conservative Liberalism and National Libertarianism.
He also hates it when being censored online for his views, constantly bringing up how he should have "Free-Speech".
Stylistic Notes
- NatLib can be portrayed as acting like Navalny, Zelensky, or Lincoln.
- Natlib is always talking about how being proud of your nation and culture is compatible with being liberal, and hates when people confuse Liberalism with Progressivism.
- Natlib can be seen complaining about how things like " radical gender ideology" and " radical Islam" are being accepted by his family members.

- Homofascism - Gay AND nationalist? Okay then. Just please drop that Nazi stuff
and all that leather too, it's making me uncomfortable. - Neoconservatism - I'm mixed on you. Fighting communists and Islamist terrorists is incredibly based. However, these military interventions have, unfortunately, escalated the refugee crisis beyond control. The Iraq War and the NATO intervention in Libya were giant mistakes indeed.
- Neo-Libertarianism - I'm sorry what?
- Regulationism - Usually a mess but sometimes necessary to protect my people and nation.
- Separatism - Sometimes good, sometimes horrible, that's all I have to say.
But if you dare to secede from our Stanistan, well illegally that is, I swear to God torturing you will be my pleasure! - Bojoism - Too statist, but at least you got Brexit done (finally) and lifted Covid restrictions.
- Radical Centrism - Too moderate, but Albert Rivera, Ross Perot and Michael Lind are ok.
- Integral Neo-Darwinism - Great... An alt-rightoid claiming to be me. But I have to admit you have a good amount of based takes on economics, immigration, liberalism, democracy, nation, and so on. Drop all edgy racist and xenophobic garbage and maybe then we can work together.
- Utilitarian Ethnonationalism - Another one.
- Breivikism - I condemn this murderous racist piece of trash!
but you have some based ideas and views - Zemmourism - You're like a Jewish French version of Donald Trump, but also a straight-up reactionary.
I voted for him in the French elections.
Enemies of Liberty and the Nation

- Imperialism - 1848-49 revolutions were based, and so was the dissolution of the USSR.
- European Federalism - Brexit goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
- State Liberalism - You ruined my name and damaging the nation. Also, #woke for #woke's sake is stupid, not to mention you're trying to force it on everyone.
- Radical Feminism - Neither liberal nor feminist. You've ruined your mother's effort.
- Jihadism - GET. OUT. YOU TERRORIST!
- Mediacracy - BuzzFeed is a flaming pile of garbage. Thankfully, it is shut down now.
- Authoritarian Conservatism - Even if I think your cultural views are okay for the most part, get out of my sight, you despot!
- Racial Nationalism - For the last time, citizens are citizens you racist bigot!
- Ethnonationalism - And the same goes to you, xenophobic trash!
Although I agree that mass illegal foreign immigration into my country is a serious issue. - Protectionism - Free trade and markets are a must for a truly prosperous nation!
but your fair-trade variant is very nice and useful, also thanks for your help in Romania and US - Dengism - Free Xinjiang! Free Hong Kong!
But honestly, Li Ao was kinda based. - Putinism - Down with the Party of Crooks and Thieves! Also, hands off Ukraine!
- Globalism - You are pure evil.
- World Federalism - A more mannered version of above created to caught us with the guard down into his tramp, your tricks don't work with me!
- Alter-Globalism - Red mannered version of above and my opposite.
- Liberal Socialism - You are a closet commie, deal with that.
- Corporatocracy - You are destroying markets and national sovereignty!
- Anti-Japaneseism - WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK!?
- Confederatism - Each Dixie boy must understand that he must mind his Uncle Sam!
- Tridemism - BuT wE'rE AlL CHineSE!!! But hey, can't expect much from a bunch of silly heads who expelled Granpa Li and purged my grand grandfather Chiang Wei-shui's TPP.

Notes
- ↑ There are rumours that he cooperates with SBU
- ↑ As a native Russian speaker himself, Zelenskyy has sought to be inclusive of ethnic/linguistic Russians within the Ukrainian nation, while at the same time ‘de-colonising’ Ukraine of Russian/Soviet topography etc.
- ↑ Russian state media (as well as other opponents of Zelensky) have depicted the president to be incompetent, fickle and addicted to drugs, in both satirical and serious contexts.

- ↑ Like several Republicans at the time, Lincoln was an "avid reader" of the Tribune, meaning Lincoln may have read Marx's articles during this time. Lincoln read the newspaper for its coverage of American politics and the Tribune's editorial stance supported the Republican and Whig economic doctrines of abolitionism, industrialisation, and protectionism in trade. During Lincoln's presidency, Marx urged Lincoln to take a more hardline stance against slavery in articles Marx wrote for the Tribune. In 1863, Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, giving Marx and the abolitionists what they wanted.
