Unstable Stalemate: Latvian Liberalism in Limbo
- As part of a special issue on 'Lex CEU', this article discusses the processes of effective marginalization of ‘liberalism’ as an openly espoused political conviction in the Latvian public sphere. It considers the interaction of four factors: nationalism, the politics of privatization, the self-interest of some powerful Latvian politicians, and, after the turn of the millennium, the increasing influence of parties and organizations espousing 'family values'.
