'''Radicalism''' ('''Rad''') or '''Radical Liberalism''' ('''RadLib''') was a historical set of movements within [[File:Clib.png]] [[Classical Liberalism]] and represented the left-wing of the historical movement. Radical liberalism took principles behind liberalism and applied them to their conclusion (a.k.a. their 'root' or 'radix' and latin, therefore 'radicalism').

For example: A classical liberal might espouse that a [[File:Dem.png]] [[Democracy|democratic]] system of government and the right to vote should be given in turn a radical liberal would take such a statement to its conclusion that being that [[File:Fem.png]] [[Feminism|women]], [[File:Soc.png]] [[Socialism|those without property]], immigrants, etc., should all be given the right to vote. Radical liberals also supported positive rights where classical ones only advocated negative ones. Moreover, radical liberals were historically the early advocates of [[File:Welf.png]] [[Welfarism|welfare states]].

Radical liberal movements declined during the latter half of the 19th century as socialism became the dominant ideology of the left; some radicals became much more moderate and became [[File:Soclib.png]] [[Social Liberalism|social liberals]] and [[File:Lib.png]] [[Liberalism|liberal democrats]], while others joined the socialists and became [[File:Liberalsoc.png]] [[Liberal Socialism|liberal socialists]] and [[File:Socdem.png|SocDem.png]] [[Social Democracy|social democrats]]. By modern standards 'radicalism' is not radical at all as the reforms made by radical liberals got accepted as the norm; in the modern day 'radical liberal' is mainly used as an insult.
