Liberalism in Australia
Overview of liberalism in Australia / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Australia, liberalism has a vast interpretation and a broad definition.[1] It dates back to the earliest Australian pioneers and has maintained a strong foothold to the present day. Modern-day Australian liberalism is the successor to colonial liberalism, and has been compared to British liberalism for its similarity. The primary representation (and political entity) of Australian liberalism is the centre-right Liberal Party of Australia. Unlike in the United States, liberalism in Australia, and the term "liberal", is often associated with conservatism.[2][3]
