	When Did Liberal Become a Dirty Word? by F. Johnson - Democratic Underground
		Liberals are not getting equal time because of the popular misconception (purveyed by hate talk radio) that the press represents only the liberal eastern establishment.
		Originally the term "liberal" was used to describe a scholar well studied in the liberal arts, someone who was broadly educated in the arts and sciences - history, literature, humanities, languages, mathematics, economics, all the sciences, and the peoples and cultures of many lands.
		A liberal is a person who grew to understand that we are all members of the human race, unique in our own cultures, and each uniquely gifted to contribute to the betterment of mankind.

	All about the ULC
		In effect, the entire planet, with Latin America being no exception, is living the emergence of a liberalism renovated by the passage of time, the failure of the socialist experiences, and the impetus of a new liberal way of thinking.
		After the failure of the fascisms - which in Latin America were mixed with militarism and popularism - and of all the diverse manifestations of socialism, the wise conclusion has been reached that liberty is the best cure for poverty and injustice.
		Liberals have the hope that this sad historical moment will have at least one positive outcome: the substitution of a violent political culture for a political culture of persuasion, dialogue and compromise.

	Sample Chapter for Colburn, F.D.: Latin America at the End of Politics.
		But the century that began full of self-confidence in the ultimate triumph of Western liberal democracy seems at its close to be returning full circle to where it started: not to an "end of ideology" or a convergence between capitalism and socialism, as earlier predicted, but to an unabashed victory of economic and political liberalism.
		Efforts to build stable and prosperous societies in Latin America under the guidance of liberalism are hobbled not only by poverty and inequality, but also frequently by the inability to complement individual initiatives with effective public policies.
		Liberalism may be the paradigm of the era, even appearing to be the "peak of ideological evolution," but nation-states embracing liberalism may well be--and remain--very different from one another.

		The aims of the initiative is, by way of an interactive transfer of information, to create a growing network of liberal mayors and local councillors, to support liberal town councils and local governments in their day-to-day work and to actively contribute to the expansion of a digital structure of communication.
		The idea and purpose of the liberal network "Relial" founded at the initiative of the Foundation at the end of 2003 is the promotion of communication and co-operation between important liberal institutions in Latin America.
		The process of developing democracy in Latin America is, in general, a success even though we are faced with a difficult starting position and setbacks.

	A Partnership for Prosperity in Latin America
		Although Latin America is less stable and secure than it was 10 years ago and half of the people live in poverty, the region is rich in resources and human capital.
		America's interests are best served by measures that encourage Latin American nations to do more to address their own problems of ineffective governance and blocked opportunity--troubles that prompt desperate masses to follow populist demagogues or seek better conditions in the United States.
		Latin America faces a choice between the closed economies and populist governments of the past and the prosperity and freedom that come from open markets and deeper, more complete democracy.

	TAP: Web Feature: Moral Imperative. by Richard Just. November 13, 2002. (Site not responding. Last check: )
		This argument is bad for liberalism for three reasons: because its veracity is highly suspect, because it is woefully inadequate as a statement of policy and because it is not, in fact, a "liberal" argument at all.
		Anti-war liberals have derided the prospect of a liberated Iraq serving as a model for Arab democracy -- and starting a domino effect that could liberate the Muslim world from the grips of petty despots and theocratic lunatics -- as fanciful.
		It was a liberal president who invoked the lesson of that war to argue for intervention in countless conflicts during the 1990s.

	Not updated: British Liberal Party election manifesto, 1966
		Among Liberal proposals are expansion of the Atomic Energy Programme, reorganisation of the Council for Scientific Policy, with wider terms of reference, better co-ordination of the Work and Research Associations and full transferability of pensions for the Civil Service so as to ensure mobility of scientific manpower.
		Liberals regard the abolition of all selection at eleven plus not as a dogmatic principle, but as a necessary and long overdue reform.
		Liberals therefore recognise the necessity of continuing pressure until the rebel regime can be replaced by an authority - representing all Rhodesians, willing to work for eventual independence based on majority rule and backed by effective British guarantees.

	Latin America and the Caribbean
		Another social phenomenon that is becoming increasingly important in Latin America and the Caribbean is the rise in the number of households headed solely or directly by a woman, as a result of abandonment, single motherhood, temporary or permanent separation of spouses and the violence associated with armed conflicts, among other factors.
		In the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean, the public institutions charged with dealing with rural women are very diverse and are not always at a decision-making level that allows for the formulation of policies and plans that will have a positive impact on changing the conditions and situations of rural women.
		Latin America needs to make the alleviation of rural poverty a priority, in view of the fact that recent studies have highlighted the feminization of poverty, through analysis of poverty's impact on women in the lower strata of rural society.

	Liberal Forum is a hard core political forum & political chat room - "insurance for freedom"
		Liberalism is the supreme form of generosity; it is the right by which the majority concedes to minorities and hence it is the noblest cry that has ever resounded on this planet.
		A liberal is a man or a woman or a child who looks forward to a better day, a more tranquil night, and a bright, infinite future.
		As mankind becomes more liberal, they will be more apt to allow that all those who conduct themselves as worthy members of the community are equally entitled to the protections of civil government.

		Nonetheless, the point is that for Latin America and the Caribbean countries, China is no longer a distant Asian power, but a mighty rival, indispensable partner, potential investor, as well as a great power friend and counterweight to the United States, and, above all, a global power that needs to be handled with care.
		Washington welcomes China's trade and economic ties with Latin America, seeing it as a means to reduce pressure on the United States to underwrite regional economic development.
		Latin America lured in Big Oil with promises of natural resources, drained these giants of billions of investment dollars then, nationalized their oil industies.

	Transatlantic Institute - Building bridges across the Atlantic
		America’s policy of dual containment was an abject failure: daily images of Iraqis suffering from the post—1991 sanctions regime were beamed into Arab homes for a decade, while the US was bombing Iraqi targets and enforcing no—fly zones over Iraq, but Saddam Hussein survived in power.
		America’s “realism” before 9/11 was interest—driven, unsentimental and brutal; it was devoid of the romance, the illusions of democratisation and the benign imperialism that Lieven now criticises.
		America’s disengagement in 2001 was the consequence, not cause, of diplomatic failure.

	Róbinson Rojas.- Latin America, America Latina, Amerique Latine, Monitoring, Evaluation, Analysis, Information on ... (Site not responding. Last check: )
		As Latin America shifts further left on the political spectrum, U.S. pundits are frantically struggling to artificially partition the continent’s leftist leaders between so-called populist demagogues and sound pragmatists.
		While most analysts wrongly see a Latin America torn between Venezuela’s Hugo Chávez and Chile’s Michelle Bachelet—between ideological and pragmatic governance—the new wave of leftist leaders all blame the last 20 years of neo-liberal “reforms” for the continent’s present ills and agree on the need for new and alternative development models.
		Economic adjustment policies, trade liberalization, privatization of State enterprise and transformation of labor markets and labor market institutions relate to a process of transition between a model of import substitution industrialization and a “new economic model” characterized by the transnationalization of Latin American internal markets.

	Liberalism worldwide - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Republican Party, re-founded as Liberal Democracy in 1997 and re-shaped as a free-market libertarian party, left UDF in 1998 and merged in the conservative Union for a Popular Movement, of which it represents the libertarian wing.
		Many would argue that this party is indeed a liberal party, simply a classical liberal party and that it is the perception of what liberalism is that has changed, not the Liberal Party (which promotes the free market approach that liberals worldwide used to promote before the 20th century).
		The term small-l liberal generally refers to someone who champions civil liberties and progressive causes such as Australian republicanism and reconciliation with Indigenous Australians, as in parties such as the Australian Democrats, which began its life as a fusion of social-liberals disaffected with the Liberal Party.

	Who we are
		The Unión Liberal Cubana (ULC) is a political party established in the exile, branched inside Cuba, conceived as a contribution to convey the ideas of democracy, human rights and a market economy into the Island.
		Two other liberal parties within Cuba, the Partido Liberal Democrático de Cuba, chaired by Osvaldo Alfonso Valdés, and Solidaridad Cubana, presided over by Fernando Sánchez López, are fraternal members of the IL as "observers," although it is expected that they will be full members some time in the future.
		And freedom includes respect for people just as they are, because liberalism disavows all of those dangerous manipulations of "social engineering" or "political genetics" that so many adversities have brought to humankind upon trying to submit it to "perfections" decided by small groups of "enlightened" who see themselves as holders of the absolute truth.

	The Liberal Theological Tradition - (Practical Dreamers Drop-InCentre)
		The liberal theological tradition affirmed the validity and importance of modern scientific inquiry, the historicity and cultural context of all religions traditions, in particular, Christianity and the paradoxical living relationship that exists between faith and culture.
		Christianity, liberal theologians argued, was a ‘third way’ between the dogmaticism of orthodoxy and the atheism of an emerging secular culture.
		The liberal way is committed to the honest and responsible interpretation of the Christian Gospel that is faithful to the Bible and the Christian tradition and relevant to the lives of persons living in a secular society.

		Despite outward appearances of modernity, Latin America is in the midst of a relatively recent transition away from authoritarian rule and plantation economies.
		Despite the efforts of the great liberators of the 19th century, Latin America has never been unified under a single banner, but a new order is emerging on the heels of presidential elections in 2005 and 2006.
		America’s diplomacy and financial support should bolster homegrown efforts to improve governance by strengthening citizen control of political parties now dominated by founder–owners, establishing links between legislators and constituent districts, enhancing the separation of powers, and promoting equal treatment of all citizens under the law.

		It is an extremely moving account of the life and death of a socialist politician, whose career would seem to speak to the contemporary situation in Latin America, where a democratic transition to socialism seems to be unfolding to one degree or another in Venezuela.
		With the resurgence of a Latin American left expressed mainly by elected governments challenging the capitalist system to one degree or another, there has been a corresponding decline of “autonomist” currents such as the EZLN and the more ideologically disposed supporters and members of the piqueteros and recovered factories movement in Argentina.
