Abstract

The relationships between liberalism and revolutionary phenomena are complex, and it makes it difficult to get a single definition for liberalism. In an intellectual degree, the common place for liberalism is the idea of “liberty”, which connects it with some aspects of the revolutionary spirit. I pretend to found those things which are common to liberalism, and then I will study the historic differences of the two kinds of liberalism (revolutionary and conservative), and finally I will show their consequences in three different ways.
