The origins of Liberalism - Reformation - the roots of liberalism lay in the Reformation, a religious movement in the late 15th and
16th centuries. Led by religious protesters such as Martin Luther, arguing that individuals
seeking to communicate with God, and to understand his commands need no longer rely
on priests, popes and other intermediaries. With the advent of the printing press and the
printed word, and the wider literacy that this promoted, Luther argued that Christianity
could not assume a more individualistic character, with each man and woman
undertaking their own private prayers and undertaking God's work in their own way.
The origins of Liberalism - The enlightment it was the Enlightenment that sought to extend the religious ideas of the reformation into
political and secular spheres.
The enlightenment was an intellectual movement that emerged in the mid-seventeenth
century. The Enlightenment was defined by a belief in reason rather than Faith, and thus
promoted relentless debate and inquiry, questioning and scrutinising almost anything that
was unthinkingly accepted.
- Among the radical ideas that emerged were that each individual is someone with free
will, and that each individual is the best judge of their own interests, and that each
individual's life should be shaped by that individuals actions and decisions.
- Writers like John Locke, began to question the relationship between individuals and
governments, seeking to define why and how individuals should defer to those who
governed them.
- Human being were uniquely endowed with the power of logic, calculation and
deduction. And it was logical that human beings should create, by themselves and for
themselves, a political system based upon reason. (Mechanistic theory - making is
rational and therefore capable of devising a state that reflects mankind's needs.
