==History==
===Foundation===
Ordoliberalism arose in 1930's [[File:Cball-Germany.png]] Germany as a rejection of [[File:Clib.png]] [[Classical Liberalism|laissez-faire economics]], [[File:Regulationism.png]] [[Regulationism|excessive interventionism]] and most of all, [[File:ML.png]] [[File:NaziCentral.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism|central]] [[Nazism|planning]],. which [[File:GermNeoLib.png]] [[Neoliberalism|Walter Eucken]], who was additionally a very early critic of the Nazi regime, fiercely criticized. It served as a foundation of much of the post-war German economic system and is usually credited with the post-war economic miracle. It believes that the role in the economy of the state is to assure that free markets give the theoretical results they are supposed to give; that the role of the state is to make sure markets are not monopolized or cartelized since that's what is in the way of markets stagnating.
 
Ordoliberals promoted the concept of the social market economy, and this concept promotes a strong role for the state with respect to the market, which is in many ways different from the ideas of [[File:Neoliberal-icon.png]] [[Neoliberalism]]. Oddly the term "Neoliberalism" was first coined in 1938 by [[File:Social Neoliberalism.png]] [[Neoliberalism|Alexander Rüstow]], who is regarded an Ordoliberal today. This is because at the start of the 20th century any kind of political Liberalism was seen badly, so when ordo-liberalism became popular it was regarded as "Neoliberalism" or "New Liberalism."
