Clarify Liberalism for a Better World
Liberalism should be understood not only as a political framework but also as an ethical philosophy. Its interpretation varies significantly across countries, leading to confusion and misinterpretation. In the United States, 'liberal' often carries a negative connotation associated with leftist ideals, while in France, it describes a right-wing, individualist stance. In Australia and Canada, the label shifts again to denote different political leanings. This discrepancy highlights the necessity for clearer understanding and historical context of liberalism's concepts to enhance both societal and political discourse.
