Via LearnLiberty.org, a great project from the Institute for Humane Studies, Dr Nigel Ashford explains classical liberalism, the doctrine of freedom:
The ten principles from the video are:
- Liberty as the primary political value
- Individualism
- Skepticism about power
- Rule of Law
- Civil Society
- Spontaneous Order
- Free Markets
- Toleration
- Peace
- Limited Government
Dr Ashford’s short book Principles for a Free Society is highly recommended too.
