About Lea Ypi →
  • Key point 1
    It’s wrong to think that the encouragement of socialism reduces the values of liberalism and vice versa.

    While claiming to make individual rights universal, liberalism excludes those individuals who cannot access money and power.
  • Key point 3
    The history of liberalism has as many failures as the history of socialism.
