Briefly describe the concept of liberalism which developed in europe in early 18th century
Answers
Answer:
Classical liberalism is a political ideology and a branch of liberalism which advocates civil liberties under the rule of law with an emphasis on economic freedom. Closely related to economic liberalism, it developed in the early 19th century, building on ideas from the previous century as a response to urbanisation and to the Industrial Revolutionin Europe and the United States.[1][2][3] Notable individuals whose ideas contributed to classical liberalism include John Locke,[4]Jean-Baptiste Say, Thomas Robert Malthusand David Ricardo. It drew on the classical economic ideas espoused by Adam Smith in Book One of The Wealth of Nations and on a belief in natural law,[5] utilitarianism[6] and progress.[7] The term classical liberalism has often been applied in retrospect to distinguish earlier 19th-century liberalism from social liberalism.[8]
