	Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Liberalism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Liberalism can trace its roots back to the humanism that began to challenge the authority of the established church during Renaissance, and the Whigs of the Glorious Revolution in Great Britain, whose assertion of their right to choose their king can be seen as a precursor to claims of popular sovereignty.
		Liberals are in favour of a pluralist system in which differing political and social views, even those viewed as extreme or fringe compete for political power on a democratic basis and have the opportunity to achieve power through periodically held elections.
		Liberals claim to believe that war can be abolished and world peace and economic prosperity can flourish if all nations loyally adhere to a world organization of all nations (the United Nations Organization), under the same law and equity, and with power to enforce strict observance of all international obligations freely entered into.

	Liberal democracy - All About All (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Liberal democracies also tend to be characterized by tolerance and pluralism; widely differing social and political views, even those viewed as extreme or fringe, are permitted to co-exist and compete for political power on a democratic basis.
		They would argue that 'liberal democracy' does not respect majority rule (except when citizens are asked to vote for their representatives), and also that its "liberty" is restricted by the constitution or precedent (in the UK) decided by previous generations.
		Since many liberals see democracies with strong statist reflections through the public choice theory as slow, dogmatic, conservative and not too apt for change, the liberal democracy contrasts with what could be called the "statist" democracy in that it emphasizes the civil society as the engine of its public discourse and development further.

	Biography
		His Liberalism, however, was more obvious when in parliament he declared himself in favour of the extension of the franchise, equal electoral districts, short parliaments and votes by ballot.
		As a Liberal he favoured the extension of the franchise to those occupiers who paid their due rates and taxes and the abolition of Church rates but opposed the endowment of the Roman Catholic clergy.
		As a leading City trader and a Liberal he was elected as a Common Councillor in 1862, at the age of 32 in the ward of Aldgate, and Alderman in Portsoken in 1883, taking a special interest in markets.

	VDARE.com: 12/20/04 - Christmas And The National Question: One Cheer For Krauthammer
		What's wrong with neoconservatism is that it is a form of liberalism, and as such it is incapable of saying flatly and clearly that while Americans certainly enjoy a right to practice whatever religions they wish, Christianity remains the public religion of the nation—whether one believes in it or likes it or not.
		Liberals (and neocons) can't say that because they don't believe in public religions and (especially) that America should have one.
		Nor is it the religion to which the majority of citizens adhere, any more than a high school glee club founded fifty years ago is young because all its members are under 18.

		This club he was in clearly had political leanings, and it's fairly obvious he put it down to show his true leanings to the then-right-wing administration under Reagan.
		Liberals think bawling in public and declaring that every problem in one's life is because of victimhood wins the argument every time.
		But unlike liberals, who use a ouija board and their own feelings to figure out what the law means, conservatives are actually hamstrung to limit their rulings to what is actually in the Constitution.

	Yale University - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Yale's 70 undergraduate majors are primarily focused on a liberal curriculum, and few of the undergraduate departments are pre-professional in nature (even the engineering departments encourage and require students to explore academic disciplines outside of engineering).
		In the meanwhile, a rift was forming at Harvard between its sixth president Increase Mather (Harvard A.B., 1656) and the rest of the Harvard clergy, which Mather viewed as increasingly liberal, ecclesiastically lax, and overly broad in Church polity.
		The university would later add the Yale School of Music (1894), the Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies (1901), Yale School of Public Health (1915), and the Yale School of Nursing (1923), Yale School of Management (1976), and reorganize its relationship with the Sheffield Scientific School.

	TomPaine.com - Time For Bold Politics
		Tomasky suggests that the problem is grounded in the success of the movements of the 1960s, which shattered the hypocrisies and racism of cold war liberalism but left in their wake an interest-group pluralism focused on rights rather than common enterprise.
		Tomasky is silent about the failure of military Keynesianism to deal with stagflation in the 1970s, and the corporate offensive that declared open warfare on liberal economics, unions and consumer and environmental groups.
		Liberal Atari Democrats and conservative New Democrats learned to scorn unions as a special interest, and to champion much of the corporate agenda—balanced budgets, free trade, deregulation, privatization, capital-gains tax cuts, opposition to the minimum wage, even the short-term stock options that gave CEOs a multimillion-dollar personal incentive to cook the books.

	ChronWatch Writers' Blog: The Black Shadow Archives
		But of course, telling the Chronicle that their stultifying liberal bias is in part to blame for their dwindling circulation as moderate and conservative readers gravitate to the Internet and FOX News and talk radio for more balance is like telling a defective parachute maker his chutes, have a slight problem.
		We've told Chronwatch readers before about the “sandwich'' technique of liberal reporters to surround conservatives and Republicans quotes in between reams of liberals and Democrats, at the bottom third of the piece, just so you know that their view is “sandwiched'' between the dozens of mainstream liberals who think properly.
		Liberals, who love the troops, only when they come home in flag draped coffins so they can wring their hands, are gleefully setting up parties to "celebrate." I kid you not.

	AnalPhilosopher -
		The main thrust of the liberal research agenda for the past thirty years has been to demonstrate that a response to concerns about inequalities in the worth of liberties can be built into liberal theory at the level of justice.
		Liberal thought allows these citizens to become society's victims, a role many are only too happy to play, in some cases for the rest of their lives.
		Liberals say that nobody should have to start in squalor, so they do what they can to give everyone the same start, even if that means taking from those who have and distributing it to those who haven't.

	Bacon's Rebellion: Chasing Demons in Prince William County
		Liberals point out (rightly, I believe) that the Second Amendement protecting the right to bear arms should be interpreted in the institutional context of the late 18th century when the citizenry was organized in militias.
		If only liberals would interpret the First Amendment in the institutional context of the late 18th century, when the Anglican Church had, during colonial rule, been established as an arm of royal English authority.
		Jim: I've always though that part of the reason that liberal intellectuals can be okay with Buddhists, Hindus, Latino Catholics, Black Protestants acting their religion out in public settings is that they truly don't see it as equivalent to the institutions of the Anglican Church or Roman Catholicism.

	DICKENS - LoveToKnow Article on DICKENS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		A member of the firm of Chapman and Hall called upon him at Furnivals Inn in December 1835 with a proposal that he should write about a Nimrod Club of amateur sportsmen, foredoomed to perpetual ignominies, while the comic illustrations were to be etched by Seymour, a well-known rival of Cruikshank (the illustrator of Boz).
		The offer was too tempting for Dickens to r~use, but he changed the idea from a club of Cockney sportsmen to that of a club of eccentric peripatetics, on the sensible grounds, first that sporting sketches were stale, and, secondly, that he knew nothing worth speaking of about sport.
		His unique force in literature he was to owe to no supreme artistic or intellectual quality, but almost entirely to his inordinate gift of observation, his sympathy with the humble, his power over the emotions and his incomparable endowment of unalloyed human fun.

		Zadie Smith doesn’t know a Klingon from a half-Vulcan, but she does know that there are many Leonard Basts out there in America: in pursuit of beauty, but angry and resentful because they have been deprived of it, or because it has been literally robbed from them.
		Just as the liberal women debate how to save the Leonard Basts of this world from their fate in “Howards End”, so too do Howard and his liberal colleagues battle to save the discretionaries.

	Metroactive Music \| Randy Newman
		Other Birthday songs, like a planned rendition of the Albanian national anthem that was to be sung by the West Point Glee Club (no, really), lend little or no insight to the project.
		That was due largely to the provocative nature of the opening track, "Rednecks," in which the New Orleans-born and L.A.-raised Newman made liberal lyrical use of the n-word at a time when that was almost unheard of outside the fl community.
		The song also drew fire for juxtaposing the stereotypical ignorance of white Southerners ("We're rednecks, we're rednecks / We don't know our ass from a hole in the ground") with the sanctimonious attitudes of Northerners who lived in denial about their own mistreatment of fls.
