Five talks on Liberalism
3-The New Liberalism by W. L. Burn
Professor of Modern History in the University of Durham
Professor Burn examines the Liberal theories and practice in the years 1902-1914. He suggests that the 'new' Liberalism was too narrowly based to be defensible and that it had insufficiently examined the abstractions it professed.

A broadcast version of an address delivered to the conference by John C. Bennett
Professor of Christian Theology and Ethics at the Union Theological Seminary, New York
Professor Bennett argues that the shortcomings of the Communist revolution have tended to make the Christian churches hostile to any social revolution whatever. Too many people, in their fear of Communist subversion, are willing to sacrifice the very liberties which make free societies worth defending against Communism.
