it's an awkward name here---but it refers to 18th-early 19th century political economy--stuff like adam smith and ricardo---processed through later economists on the order of von mises and hayek---which is the "liberal" economic tradition. that's where the name comes from anyway. it's not a consistent liberalism, though--for example social darwinism replaces john stuart mill. but anyway, that's the idea.
