History
After the restoration of democracy in 1989 liberalism became very divided. At the moment one could distinguish four parties: the right of center Croatian Social Liberal Party (Hrvatska socijalno liberalna stranka, member LI, ELDR) and the two center liberal parties Liberal Party (Liberalna stranka, member LI, ELDR) and Croatian People's Party-Liberal Democrats (Croatian Hrvatska narodna stranka - Liberalni Demokrati, observer LI, member ELDR). Main media exponents of Croatian liberalism or liberal ideas include or included newspapers Novi list and Glas Istre, culture magazine Zarez and the defunct weekly Feral Tribune.

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Regarding History as the slaughter-bench at which the happiness of peoples, the wisdom of States, and the virtue of individuals have been victimized—the question involuntarily arises—to what principle, to what final aim these enormous sacrifices have been offered.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
““And now this is the way in which the history of your former life has reached my ears!” As he said this he held out in his hand the fatal letter.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
