Social liberalism

Social liberalism is a political ideology that seeks to find a balance between individual liberty and social justice.Like classical liberalism, social liberalism endorses a market economy and the expansion of civil and political rights and liberties, but differs in that it believes the legitimate role of the government includes addressing economic and social issues such as poverty, health care, and education.Under social liberalism, the good of the community is viewed as harmonious with the freedom of the individual.Social liberal policies have been widely adopted in much of the capitalist world, particularly following World War II.
