Since then, scholars from the New Left and neoconservative camps have presented an alternative perspective, arguing that the civic ideals of antiquity continued to shape political thought in modern times. However, \"From Classical to Modern Liberalism\" challenges this revisionist notion by advocating for a comparative study of America. By examining the country in this context, the book reveals that republicanism in the modern world was uniquely modern, drawing upon concepts of natural rights, consent, and social contract. Instead of viewing the conflict as a battle between liberalism and republicanism, we should focus on liberal republicanism.
