When there is any talk of liberalism in the world especially in developing countries there is the talk of freedom, women't rights, human rights, etc... Even though these concepts are important they can not be regarded without considering the economic aspects of liberalism. First of all, a mistake made by many readers and thinkers is that liberalism as its true meaning can be imposed or implemented by the government. Ofcourse this is not true. Liberalism is a political philosophy that stems from the concept of individualism meaning that each person or individual has some rights and responsibilities as a human being living in a civil society. One of the most important aspects of liberalism is that it can't be implemented by a collective entity such as government into this so called civil society. Liberalism is rather a spontaneous movement that emerges from the essence of individual understanding, action, movement, and thinking. Hence, any development process needs to create not dictate an environment for the growth of the liberal economic and political reform. A good question would be that when did this spontaneous movement start? Where is the beginning of this spontaneous movement? Is there a timeline for economic and human growth? Or is it beyond time and place? All of these philosophical, political, and economic questions are important in answering questions that arise in this environment.
