ABSTRACT

This study defines liberalism as a paradigm, and critically analyzes Patrick Deneen’s Why liberalism Failed. I am trying to propose a civil republicanism as a way to minimize the problems of liberalism. Deneen analyzes the failures of liberalism and does not seek an alternative ideology, arguing that liberalism cannot be modified or supplemented and should be discarded. However, like the paradigm in science, the ideological paradigm is not discarded until a new ideology that can replace it emerges and gains support from people. Thus, liberalism will continue for the time being. In this situation, although civic republicanism pointed out the problem of liberalism and suggested it as an alternative ideology, it has many factors that can complement liberalism. This paper will focus on the civic virtue of civil republicanism, and argue that civil republicanism is compatible with liberalism and can function to solve the problems of liberalism.
