(2004-12-03) Nolan Progressive Libertarians

Chris Nolan identified a group back in April she calls Progressive Libertarian - Progressive for their good-hearted desire to change and order their world, Libertarian for their cold-eyed faith in the bottom line. (Dynamist)

Since the Presidential Election, she's noted that the Democratic Party is moribund, and that this new group is a growing force for change that crosses party lines. She also notes its SmallWorld orientation - Progressive Libertarians' "SmallIsBeautiful" attitude - the emphasis on the stripped down corporate attitude the entrepreneurial "what works best" approach to solving problems - is well suited to the U.S. return to its Federalist roots.

A Third Party?

She has a whole category on her blog now to track them.
