Reclaiming Democratic Classical Liberalism

"[L]iberalism expresses a skepticism about government[s] being able to “do good” for people. Instead an important role of government is to ... maintain the conditions for people to be empowered and enabled to do good for themselves, for example, in establishing ... the private property prerequisites for the functioning of a market economy as emphasized in ... economic [thought] (e.g., Heyne et al. 2006, pp. 36–38)."
