Abstract

The chapter analyzes the contours of Cold War liberalism more broadly. Three central elements, which mutually supported each other, are identified: first, philosophical positions that can best be summed up with the concepts value pluralism and anti-determinism. Second, a set of distinct political principles, in particular a defense of negative liberty as the genuinely liberal conception of freedom and, in addition, liberal constitutionalism. Third, there was an insistence on a decent measure of social provision. Berlin’s political thought exhibits all these features to some degree and is analyzed accordingly.
