What is liberalism? Why is it under attack around the world right now? In this seminar, we will examine the history of liberalism as a philosophy and political system of free minds and free markets. Then we will look at the arguments and politics of its many critics today. The course will be debate-based and participatory, as we figure out what went wrong and whether or not liberalism is worth saving.
