Social Liberalism (SocLib) also called Left-Liberalism (LeftLib), Modern Liberalism (ModLib), Welfare Liberalism (WelLib) and/or New Liberalism (NewLib) is a political ideology which combines elements of liberal democracy with economic interventionism as means of "ensuring economic justice as well as civil liberty".

History

Social Liberalism started in the United Kingdom as a trend within the Liberal Party that strayed away from laissez-faire economics, accepting certain market regulations, and moved more towards a Social welfare system and from the more traditional classical liberal deontological view of morality to a more utilitarian view of morality based on the philosophy of Jeremy Bentham.

The most influential figure behind the move towards this kind of liberalism is the English philosopher John Stuart Mill, who believed in certainly free markets along with welfare systems to assure equal opportunities.

Foundations

SocLib believes in little regulated capitalism, especially regarding monopolies kind of problems, with a large social safety net in a similar vein to his mother, but unlike her SocLib believes that it's best for such a system to have taxes and regulations low enough to create as much tax revenue as realistically possible for the social programs along with economic growth and investment.

Personality

Social Liberalism acts like a stereotypical urban middle-class left-winger in western countries.

How to Draw

The Social Liberal design is the Social Democratic Rose in the Liberal colours of Blue and Gold.

  1. Draw a ball with eyes
  2. Fill it with the same shade of blue as Liberalism (#006aa7).

Frenemies

  • Neoliberalism - I like most of your ideas, but there should at least be more welfare programs.
  • Social Authoritarianism - Your ideas on the economics are ok, but you scare me.
  • Social Georgism - LVT is a fairly radical idea, the voters may not be down with it.
