The International Order

Paper Summary:

The paper examines whether the international order is an increasingly liberal one. The paper further examines how this liberalization of the international order, that has grown in recent years, is based on the classic liberal model of freedom, individual rights, fair government, and prosperity. In closing, the researcher argues that pure liberalism is what the world is embracing, and what needs to continue for the good of the international order, given the perilous nature of the modern world.

From the Paper:

"The problem that was uncovered in the course of the research is that the classic definition of what it means to be liberal, which is to say what the early liberal thinkers intended and envisioned for the future of the liberal movement, is not was subsequently became the daily liberal model that was injected into the international order. Rather, the liberal profile and manifesto, so to speak, became distorted and misrepresented with the passage of time and the manipulation of the liberal model by activists, common citizens, and world governments."
