Liang Qichao 's liberalism originates directly from the West,but is deeply influenced by the Chinese traditional discourse system and the overwhelming reality context of saving the nation in modern tim es.What is different from Western liberalism is that the dim ensions of Liang Qichao 's freedom are developed at two levels,one is the individual level,the other is the national level.
