现代社会自由主义是从1900年左右的古典自由主义演变而来的。社会自由主义在两个主要方面不同于古典自由主义：个人自由和政府在社会中的作用。 英国社会和政治理论家以赛亚·柏林（Isaiah Berlin）在1969年的开创性文章“两种自由概念”中断言，自由本质上既可以是消极的，也可以是积极的。 积极的自由只是做某事的自由。 负自由是没有限制个人自由的限制或障碍。 在不应允许政府和其他人干预自由市场或自然个人自由的范围内，古典自由主义者赞成消极权利。 另一方面，现代社会自由主义者认为个人具有积极的权利，例如投票权，最低生活工资权以及最近的医疗保健权。

Modern social liberalism evolved from classical liberalism around 1900. Social liberalism differs from classical liberalism in two main ways: personal freedom and the role of government in society. Isaiah Berlin’s pioneering article “Two Free Concepts” in 1969 interrupted the statement that freedom can be either negative or positive in nature. Positive freedom is just the freedom to do something. Negative freedom is a restriction or obstacle that does not limit individual freedom. Classical liberals favor negative rights in situations where the government and others should not be allowed to interfere in free markets or natural individual freedoms. On the other hand, modern social liberals believe that individuals have positive rights, such as voting rights, minimum living wages, and recent health care rights.
