FLAPTEKST :
basing himself upon the great tradition of Western civilization , mr. Meyer examines the tension between the freedom of the person and the power of social institutions , which exists in all societies ; writing as a Conservative , he maintains that both the prevalent Liberalism of the 20th century and the so-called New Conservatism have grealy overstressed the claims of the social order , with the result that society and the state are presented as possessing a moral value that dwarfs the individual person and tends to justify the repression of his liberties ; these liberties - this book maintains - are essential to the pursuit of virtue , which is the purpose of men ´s lives ; therefore , the proper end of political thought and action is the establishment and preservation of freedom
