1. Liberals do not give a concrete understanding of the causes and nature of social conflicts.
2. Liberal view of man and society is not a scientific view thus it has been considered as an unscientific view of politics which is not based on observation and reality rather than merely based on ideals and reasons.
3. Liberal view of politics is thoroughly devoted to justice but it fails to distinguish between "compromise" and "cooperation". Compromise can be effected without creating the condition of freedom and on the other hand, cooperation can only be generated by the elimination of dominance and dependence.
