“L. T. Hobhouse’s Liberalism (1911), which has acquired the status of a modern classic, is the most enduring statement of the political principles which animated British liberal social reformers in the early years of the twentieth century.  While written in a popular style, it is actually a theoretical work of some subtlety, combining an historical analysis of the evolution of liberal doctrine with a philosophical discussion of the character of liberal belief, and proposing a reformulation of liberalism which emphasizes community, individual welfare rights, and a activist state.  (…)

This new edition of Liberalism includes a number of Hobhouse’s other writings from the same period, which help to define its place in the development of his political philosophy.”  (> from the backcover)
