I see Brink Lindsey's Liberaltarianism. As playing with a lot of those tensions between classical liberalism, social liberalism, and libertarianism (It's a party in John Stuart Mill's head and everyone is invited! His latest White Paper, Low Hanging Fruit Guarded by Dragons. Is a great contribution to this:. This got me thinking of Bastiat.
