Liberalism Divided A Study in British Political Thought, 1914-1939

Liberalism Divided is the first detailed study of British liberal thought in the interwar years. The author reassesses progressive liberalism in light of the partial reaction against the state provoked by World War I. The division of liberal thought into two streams--left-liberalism and centrist-liberalism--is explored, and the changing political theories of major new liberals such as L.T. Hobhouse and J.A. Hobson are contrasted with centrist-liberal ideas.Freeden, Michael is the author of 'Liberalism Divided A Study in British Political Thought, 1914-1939', published 1986 under ISBN 9780198274322 and ISBN 0198274327.
