Liberalism, in one form or another, has been the prevailing political ideology of the past 200 years. It has become so pervasive, as an ideology, that it lays claim to the middle ground and common sense itself. But liberalism is a set of dogmas and doctrines like any other political ideology, and unfathomable horrors as well as huge advances have been made in its name.
Today on Downstream, the ideas we call liberal or centrist are up for scrutiny, as Aaron Bastani interviews Adrian Wooldridge. Wooldridge is a liberal insider, having been a journalist at the Economist magazine for thirty years. His new book, 'Centrists of the World Unite! The Lost Genius of Liberalism' is an account of his own sense that liberalism in 2026 is in a state of crisis. It must reinvent itself, he argues, or die.
So what exactly is liberalism, where did it come from, and how...
