	Liberalism
		A fundamental principle of Liberalism is the proposition: "It is contrary to the natural, innate, and inalienable right and liberty and dignity of man, to subject himself to an authority, the root, rule, measure, and sanction of which is not in himself".
		Since the so-called Liberal principles of 1789 are based upon a wrong notion of human liberty, and are and must forever be contradictory and indefinite in themselves, it is an impossibility in practical life to carry them into effect with much consistency.
		It was the Liberalism of the practical politicians and statesmen, who intended to re-establish, maintain, and develop, in the different states, the constitutional form of government based upon the principles of 1789.

	Mansoor Hekmat - Essays
		Liberalism and the principles and demands associated with it were paramount in the struggle of the burgeoning bourgeoisie against feudal fetters and the standards of autocratic monarchy.
		The freedoms proposed in the liberal school in the sphere of politics and state are reflections of, and derivations from, the principles advocated by this school in regards to economics and classes in society.
		Liberal democracy, therefore, is exactly the opposite of what it is claimed to be, that is, a framework for the participation of the mass of people in the affairs of the state and in the political power.

	On the Ecological Movement
		This is why irresponsible consumerism is the rule where bourgeois liberalism reigns as the the dominant ideology.
		- Bourgeois liberalism serves as the ideological justification to a way of life which is ecologically unacceptable and to the destruction of traditional communitarian values by the dehumanized forces of the ' market economy'.
		Bourgeois liberalism serves as the justification for this culture of hollowness.

	Giving Liberalism its Due (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Reference to liberalism=s fundamental premise, for example, helps bring out what liberalism shares with democracy, which is devotion to freedom and equality, and what it adds to democracy, which are limitations, in the name of the rights of individuals, on the freedom of majorities.
		Truth be told, academic liberalism must shoulder a fair portion of the blame for allowing the complexity and many-sidedness of the liberal tradition to fade from view.
		Although aware of the importance of voluntary association, the liberal tradition also grapples with the evils of association, the threats to the dignity of the individual faced by men and women situated in suffocating communities whose given roles stultify human capacities and whose internal goods are not worth respecting.

	How the Gunfighter Killed Bourgeois America by Ryan McMaken
		Liberalism dominated politics throughout America and Western Europe where members of the rising bourgeois classes, chafing under the yoke of ancient systems of government privilege and control, set out to strip government of its power.
		As liberalism was the political theory of the bourgeoisie, Victorianism was its social philosophy.
		Dallas’ woes are increased by the prejudices of the bourgeois passengers on the stagecoach.

	Stalking the Therapeutic State \| Turnabout
		To some extent the insistence is justified as a counter to attempts to present advanced liberalism in America as the special project of a small elite with an outlook alien to American institutions, disconnected from that of their fellow citizens, and overly influenced by foreign thinkers.
		There is no liberal central committee to make decisions and establish a party line, only a complex of actors and elites who must rely on common understandings to establish their right to rule and to coordinate their actions.
		In contemporary liberalism third-world peoples and lifestyle minorities meet all those qualifications: they are different, they are connected to us by common inclusion in the universal system established by contemporary liberalism, and we owe them something that should override all other considerations, because they have a peremptory right to equality that is perpetually unsatisfied.

	Untitled Document
		Liberalism is a creed which holds that the primary unit of value resides in the exercise of an individual’s free will.
		This de-politicization of the economic was convenient for the dominant Liberalism (and today’s neo-Liberalism) because it minimized social conflict while assuring a type of (private) freedom in the face of the enormous complexity and power of the economic and political systems.
		By bourgeois Liberalism we mean the type of 19th Century Liberalism that is concerned with the securing of political and economic rights against the corporatism of the state and church as opposed to say, securing democratic rights or social rights.

	What Is Marxism? Continued...
		The Commune of Paris (1871) completes this development of bourgeois reforms; it was only the heroism of the proletariat that brought about the consolidation of the republic, i.e., the form of state organisation in which the class relations appear in their most naked form.
		Liberalism, rotten to the core, tries to revive itself in the form of socialist opportunism.
		And the decay of all bourgeois parties together with the maturing of the proletariat is proceeding steadily apace.

	Oded Heilbronner \| "Long Live Liberty, Equality, Fraternity and Dynamite" The German Bourgeoisie and the Constructing ...
		Liberalism as a mass democratic movement, and the German Bürgertum as a cultural liberal formation, it was said until recently, only existed in Germany until 1849, or, some will say, until the early 1870s, after which both lost their mass democratic-liberal appeal.
		The Liberals viewed this with concern, but here too they decided not to oppose the socialists but to increase their collaboration with them, to intensify their social activities among the lower strata of society and show them that the local liberals could look after their interests better than the socialists.
		In a memorandum written by the Church authorities (Ordenariat) in Freiburg on the process of secularization and the purchase of land by Protestants in the Constance region, the liberal socioeconomic orientation of the large-scale farmers and the artisans in the towns of the region was mentioned.

	Lenin: The Attitude Towards Bourgeois Parties (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		The inevitability of bourgeois treachery was deduced by the Bolsheviks even then, before the open activities of the Constitutional-Democrats, the chief liberal party; the deduction was based on the class interests of the bourgeoisie and their fear of the proletarian movement.
		On the basis of a theoretical analysis, the Bolsheviks forecast in 1905 that the pivot of Social-Democratic tactics in the bourgeois revolution is the question of the treachery of liberalism and the democratic capacity of the peasantry.
		The liberals consider the complete abolition of landed proprietorship and the feudal state to be utopian and empty revolutionism; such a débâcle is not to the advantage of the bourgeoisie, and dangerous to it.

	A Few Loose Ends by Paul Gottfried
		Bourgeois liberal in my last three books, moreover, refers specifically to the "idea" of the Euro-American bourgeoisie, as they existed and conceived of themselves in the nineteenth and early twentieth century.
		Such an "idea" is pre- and even antidemocratic and while such liberals were not antithetical to the state, as the political form of self-conscious nations, they insisted on strict constitutional limits being placed on state power.
		Never would bourgeois liberalism permit "public administration" (which is a primarily twentieth-century mass democratic phenomenon) to interfere in family structure or to carry out income redistribution as a social project.

	Chapter Eleven, COLLECTIVIST-ANARCHISM
		If Liberalism is the ideology of the hope of the middle sections of the population, Anarchism is the ideology of their desperation.
		As the masses were constrained to break sharply from the bourgeoisie, Liberal Anarchism disappeared as hopeless, able to attract only a few literati and "philosophers." In France, the masses, now opposed to capitalism as it was developing, were impelled to include in their Anarchism a hostile and collective character.
		We have seen that Liberalism had brought God down from the heavens and sheltered him in the breast of man. Petty bourgeois Liberalism had even reached a materialism in which, instead of an eternal God, there was Humanity, and everywhere religions of Humanity had sprung up.

	The Democratic Principle \| libcom.org
		The Marxist critique of the postulates of bourgeois democracy is in fact based on the definition of the class character of modern society.
		Thus the pernicious politics and tactics of social-democracy are reflected in the error of principle that presents socialism as the inheritor of a substantial part of the doctrine that liberalism opposed to the old spiritualist doctrines.
		This metaphysical presupposition, incompatible with the Marxist critique, is characteristic not only of the doctrine constructed by bourgeois liberalism, but also of all the constitutional doctrines and plans for a new society based on the "intrinsic value" of certain schemes of social and state relations.

	The Program of Social Democracy in Mexico
		This is the catechism of bourgeois liberalism adopted by social democracy.
		In this sense the bourgeois State is the patrimony of the bourgeois class, and as such it will always be the defender of its heritage, which is the role of protector of the class which has established it for its exclusive use.
		The social democrats have defined themselves; they are a bourgeois current, whose ideals are the defense of the bourgeois world by legal, constitutional methods; their principal means of 'struggle' are the elections, and their method of putting into effect their proposals is reformism.

	New Catholic Dictionary: liberalism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Although liberalism was first formulated by the Protestant Genevese (Necker, Rousseau, etc.), it spread to the world from France, developing with the different revolutions in Europe, and is classified as follows:
		This variety flourished in France under Louis-Philippe, 1830-1840, in Germany as "national Liberalism," and in Austria as "political liberalism in general." In the main it stresses the sordid material ideal.
		Liberalism was condemned by the Church, explicitly and in detail in the encyclical and syllabus of Pius IX, 1864, in the Vatican Council, 1870, in the encyclicals of Leo XIII, in the allocution of Pius X, 1907, and in the decree of the Congregation of the Inquisition, 1907.
