Taking readers from ancient Rome to today, Helena Rosenblatt traces the evolution of the words \"liberal\" and \"liberalism,\" revealing the heated debates that have taken place over their meaning. She debunks the popular myth of liberalism as a uniquely Anglo-American tradition, and shows how it was only during the Cold War that it was refashioned into an American ideology focused on individual freedoms. This timely and provocative book sets the record straight on a core tenet of today's political conversation, laying the foundations for a more constructive discussion about the future of liberal democracy.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHelena Rosenblatt\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of history at the Graduate Center, City University of New York.
