Libertarianism

Libertarianism (From the Latin Word Libertas, meaning Freedom) is an ideology that advocates liberty, especially with regard to thought or conduct. There are two main forms of libertarianism:

1. Proletarian libertarianism or left-Llbertarianism, which is leftist and associated with people such as Murray Bookchin, Noam Chomsky, and Peter Kropotkin.

2. Bourgeois libertarianism or right-libertarianism, which is rightist and associated with people such as Ron Paul, Gary Johnson, and John McAfee.

There is also some libertarians who are not clearly in either category or claim to be "economically neutral", these are sometimes referred to as "civil libertarians", groups like the American Civil Liberties Union can be described as this.

Philosophy

The main philosophy of libertarianism (right and left) is that the state limits human liberties.
