One of the more important tasks facing the intellectual historian is to chart the changing meaning of "liberalism" from 1900 to the present and to understand the transition in American thought from the tradition of 18th and 19th century individualism to the modified organi­cism of the mid 20th century. Until the 20th century most Americans took for granted the "Lockean" postulate of government as a rational compact between free and equal individuals. The liberal model of an active human nature, oriented toward goals formulated in the present and realizable in a better future, seemed natural and inevitable.1
