Just to make sure: In your model, the laissez-faire guys are classified as a part of “Progressivism/Liberalism”? Or are they just statistically too insignificant to be included in any major political force?
Yeah, I meant Liberalism both in the sense it’s used in America and in the sense of the classical laissez-faire liberalism. There are disagreements between social democrats and the libertarianian-minded, but they’ve not yet gone to war against each other as the other groupings have, and instead allied against both other groups I mentioned.
So even if one considers them different movements, they’ve been in steady alliance or at least friendly rivalry for the period in European history that I was considering, and I think can be treated as a single movement. I could also probably use the Moldbuggian “Universalist” term to put them together...
