	Liberal Party - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Liberal Party is the name of dozens of political parties around the world.
		It usually designates a party that is ideologically liberal, meaning that they advocate individual rights and civil liberties, and sometimes left wing, meaning that they are egalitarian and believe in the redistribution of wealth from rich to poor.
		However, there are also many Liberal Parties which subscribe to classical liberalism and therefore support a mostly unregulated free market, or who are actually more conservative in nature than their opponents, or whose views are right wing, libertarian, or difficult to categorise.

		In North America, you have a group of liberal interventionists shaped by the experiences of Bosnia and Somalia and Rwanda and Kosovo, who are actively making a case for the war.
		Now, I am in favor of that kind of, if you like, liberal imperialism which we are practicing in Bosnia or Kosovo, where the international community intervenes to prevent attempted genocide, and then tries to put these countries on their feet again.
		I think that what he represents to American liberals is very complicated, because as you well know, there's a tendency for American liberals to identify more with Europe, in many ways, than with the prevailing conservative tendency in the States now.
