    Here are the definitions I’m using:

    Dunn, John (1993), Western Political Theory in the Face of the Future, Cambridge University Press:

    political rationalism, hostility to autocracy, cultural distaste for conservatism and for tradition in general, tolerance, and … individualism

    Iain McLean and Alistair McMillan (2009), Concise Oxford Dictionary of Politics:

    liberalism In general, the belief that it is the aim of politics to preserve individual rights and to maximize freedom of choice.

    Where are you getting your definitions from? I feel like you’re just making them up.
