The Relevance of Liberalism

Robert L. Bartley and others
Reviewed by Edward L. Morse

Six authors, including Giovanni Sartori, Edward Shils and other distinguished writers and thinkers, examine the contemporary relevance of liberalism in domestic and international society. Michael Mandelbaum's concluding essay stresses the resilience of liberal values and their adaptability to sociopolitical and economic circumstances that are quite different from those present at their birth.
