What was the composition of the National Liberation Front and what was it intended for?
There have been 22 organizations in as many countries since WW2 calling themselves "The National Liberation Front". Coming up with an original name apparently is not as easy as it looks. The mother of them all was the Viet Cong, composed of North Vietnamese and intended for the liberation and unification of Vietnam.
It you are asking about one of the other 21, please specify.
What does it mean to join the Liberal Party of Canada?
In Canada, people have the opportunity to join a political party of their choice by paying a modest membership fee. Usually, the only 'political' requirement to becoming a member of a party is to state in writing that you are not a member or supporter of any other political party. (This is referred to variously as 'making a commitment to the party' or 'party loyalty.') Membership in a political party allows you opportunities to choose your party's candidate in an election, attend membership meetings in your riding (i.e., electoral district), and become a delegate to party conventions where party policy is decided. There is also a certain amount of social life within political parties, which includes opportunities to meet party leaders face-to-face. There is a general expectation that a member of a political party will volunteer to help out during an election campaign, and make a modest financial donation to the cause. These, however, are not mandatory. But party loyalty is a more important requirement than contributing time or money to the party. In essence, one is expected to support the policies and leaders of one's party, or at least remain silent and not openly oppose them. Roughly 3 percent of Canada's population are so-called "card-carrying members" of one political party or another. I, for example, was a member of Canada's New Democratic Party (NDP) for well over a quarter century. (I am still a strong supporter of the NDP and I voluntarily continue to respect and observe party loyalty.) You will find the official list of Canada's registered political parties at the Elections Canada website. (Just Google "elections canada.") Feel free to contact any or all of Canada's political parties for further information about each one.
What is the Libertarian Movement?
A movement is an effort by many people aimed at a common goal. Since the 1970's, there have been people in the U.S. (and now around the world) who define themselves as part of a "libertarian movement."
Most loosely defined, their common goal is more human freedom. More specifically, libertarians advocate a radically limited role for government and strict respect for individual rights.
The libertarian movement encompasses all kinds of organizations and individuals, including hundreds of think tanks (the largest is the Cato Institute), periodicals (e.g. Reason), political parties (e.g. the U.S. Libertarian Party), intellectuals, academics, activists, and a few politicians.
It's worth noting that many libertarians disagree with each other; some so vehemently that they disassociate themselves from "libertarianism" altogether. Most notably, fans of Ayn Rand and her philosophy of Objectivism are by any reasonable definition "libertarians," but many don't like to called libertarian.
AnswerThere are two movements that call themselves libertarian that are fundamentally different. The first libertarian movement is also called libertarian socialist. Libertarian socialists believe in a socialism where the workers are recognized as the legitimate owners of the means of production as opposed to the government. They see complete free market capitalism as being against freedom, since workers do not control the means of production and must obey orders from the boss, who often doesn't do any of the work. Anarchists don't even want a government, while council communists want a government based on a federation of worker's councils and a central committee, but they want it to have limited powers with most power residing in the workers themselves.The other libertarian movement sees private property rights as being essential to freedom, including the right to work for a boss. They believe that a person has the right to rent their labor to others. At its extreme some libertarians, such as Robert Nozick want to make it legal to sell yourself into slavery seeing it as a voluntary exchange of one's lifetime of labor for money or some other reward. These libertarians are divided into minarchists who believe in some limited government to protect private property rights and provide some basic services such as defense and anarchocapitalists who believe that all services the government currently provides should be replaced with private defense agencies. Many socialist anarchists disagree that these are real anarchists.
