But any relation to socialism necessarily involves some strain or other of liberalism. There is no abstract relationship between the two. Socialists of whatever variety don't criticise liberalism as such but liberalism as understood in particular ways - in your words 'particular strains' of liberalism. | |

| Aug 2, 2018 at 17:04 | comment | added | Gordon | When it is said ""Hegel and totalitarianism" I think of a philosopher such as Giovanni Gentile. Not so much Marx himself because Marx had a anarchical tendency. | |
| Aug 2, 2018 at 16:58 | comment | added | Gordon | True liberalism says: we will take anybody's money. It is capitalism. In America, the usage of libertarianism most closely fits the idea. The Koch brothers, for instance. Laissez-faire across the board. | |

| Aug 2, 2018 at 15:34 | comment | added | mavavilj | @DavidBlomstrom But I've only seen liberalism opposed to socialism. So it's not more defined than that. What I'm interested in, what are the possible reasons for drawing such dichotomy. | |
