Historia Magna, 2025

The Conservative Critique of Liberalism: Theory and Practice by Jeremy Riley offers a comprehensive exploration of the core ideas that shape conservative thought in its critique of liberalism. This book delves into the intellectual foundations of conservatism, examining the historical and philosophical roots of its opposition to the liberal principles of individualism, progress, and universalism. Riley traces the development of conservative thought from Edmund Burke's reflections on the French Revolution to contemporary conservative debates surrounding the welfare state, multiculturalism, globalism, and the role of tradition in society. Through a careful analysis of key thinkers, political events, and modern-day challenges, the book argues that conservatism offers a necessary counterbalance to liberalism's idealism and that its emphasis on national sovereignty, authority, and cultural continuity provides an essential framework for understanding and navigating today's rapidly changing world. Ultimately, this work seeks to demonstrate how conservative theory, while often in opposition to liberal thought, is both a critique of the present and a proposal for a more stable, coherent, and meaningful political and social order.
