For instance, John Stuart Mill, whose works were notably influenced by his socialist wife, is considered by libertarians as a fringe author in their philosophical tradition, whereas, as member of parliament, he is considered by political liberals as a key person in their tradition. [Lord Acton]?, a classical liberal author, also had some acknowledged influence on Gladstone?, a liberal politician. Finally, some renowned economists and politicians in the 1920s and 1930s, at the time when collectivist theories were at their highest influence, renounced to basic principles of classical liberalism while still calling themselves "liberal" in contrast with overtly collectivist economists. That's as far as the relationship goes between these two traditions. |
