Liberal Politics - HOME Liberal Politics Reasonably Radical: Deliberative Liberalism and the Politics of Identity by Anthony Simon Laden, Liberalism and the politics of identity seem incompatible. Liberalism starts from the capacity of reasonable individuals to order their lives. The politics of feminism and multiculturalism, however, argue that liberal individualism glosses over structural inequalities and relies on unjust normalizing pressures. Modern political philosophy must reconcile these two viewpoints if it is to move forward. Reasonably Radical synthesizes both approaches in a new form of liberal theory: deliberative liberalism. Anthony Simon Laden demonstrates that liberal theory can ...

Difference Between Conservative and Liberal - HOME Difference Between Conservative and Liberal Liberal Economics and Democracy: Keynes, Galbraith, Thurow, and Reich by Conrad P. Waligorski, Conrad Waligorski argues that, despite individual differences, liberal economists are bound together by a common vision of the public good. Collectively, these thinkers represent a strong countertradition to the laissez-faire, free-market philosophy of James Buchanan, Milton Friedman, F. A. Hayek, Newt Gingrich, and other proponents of minimalist government and trickle-down economics. Waligorski locates the roots of the liberal economic tradition in the thought exemplified by U.S. Progressives John Dewey and Louis Brandeis, and by British liberal L. T. Hobhouse. But he also shows that these economists are no ivory-tower theorists, that they are actively engaged with real-life problems and politics. A fitting sequel and companion to Waligorski's last book, The Political Theory of Conservative Economists, this new work provides a provocative challenge to the relentless conservative and libertarian attacks on the regulatory welfare state.
