Abstract

ARCEO CONTRERAS, José Alejandro. What are we talking about when we talk about liberalism?. Estud. polít. (Méx.) [online]. 2013, n.29, pp.129-147. ISSN 0185-1616.

The article presents an overview of the origin, development and progress of liberal thought, which is not limited to issues such as free market and democracy. In words of the author, the text is an invitation to learn liberalism, revaluing its importance, especially from authors who in his opinion, have done in the best way; because as well as it happened in the past, there are current situations that are likely to be faced with economic, political and social ideas from theorists such as John Stuart Mill, Adam Smith, John Locke, Benjamin Constant, Thomas Hill Green or Alexis de Tocqueville.

Keywords : liberalism; ethical liberalism; realistic liberalism; protholiberalism; new liberalisms.
