libertarios

The Libertarian Party (LIBER; Brazilian Portuguese: Partido Libertários) is a libertarian Brazilian political organization listed as a political party by the Superior Electoral Court (Portuguese: Tribunal Superior Eleitoral; TSE). The party was founded on June 20, 2009, in Belo Horizonte.The concept of the Brazilian Libertarian Party first surfaced in 2005 among users of the Orkut social networking service. LIBER's program and statutes were published in the Federal Official Gazette in January 2010. The party has organized demonstrations on the Rio de Janeiro waterfront against the PNDH 3 bill, and have also participated in liberal forums and seminars, such as the Austrian Economy Seminar and the Liberdade e Democracia Forum in Belo Horizonte.The Libertarians are affiliated with the Inter-libertarians, an international association of Libertarian parties and organizations. Because of its strong defense of a market economy with minimal state interference, the party has been associated with the new right. Although their stances on economic issues tend to lean right, on social issues libertarianism tends to be left-wing. Traditionally, libertarian theory is related to the classical liberal tradition, whose proponents include John Locke, David Hume, Adam Smith and Immanuel Kant.
