	Liberalism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Liberalism is a political current embracing several historical and present-day ideologies that claim defense of individual liberty as the purpose of government.
		At the core of this wave of liberalism was most often the ideal of a night-watchman state, a state limited to the functions of upholding the law, preventing abuses of civil authority, expanding markets and defending the country.
		Liberalism was to make a third dramatic transformation: the creation of a more elaborate state apparatus was argued for as the bulwark of individual liberty and the continuation of capitalism without resorting to dictatorship.

	Liberalism
		Liberalism can be understood as (1) a political tradition (2) a political philosophy and (3) a general philosophical theory, encompassing a theory of value, a conception of the person and a moral theory as well as a political philosophy.
		Those who insist that liberalism is ultimately a nihilistic theory can be interpreted as arguing that this transition cannot be made successfully: liberals, on their view, are stuck with a subjectivistic or pluralistic theory of value, and no account of the right emerges from it.
		Prominent liberals have recently shied away from the conception of liberalism as a comprehensive philosophy, and have sought to return to its roots: as a purely political doctrine.
