Consider option A. The author is likely to disagree with this. Note the lines, 'He argues that the essence of liberalism lies in freeing individuals from constraints. In fact, liberalism contains a wide range of intellectual traditions which provide different answers to the question of how to trade off the relative claims of rights and responsibilities, individual expression and social ties.'
Consider option B. The author starts the passage by saying, 'Over the past four centuries liberalism has been so successful that it has driven all its opponents off the battlefield'. He also argues in the penultimate paragraph that liberalism has the ability to reform itself to remain dominant. So, the author is likely to agree with this option. Option B is the correct choice.
Let us also consider options C and D to rule them out.
The author is likely to disagree with the statement that claims about liberalism's disintegration are exaggerated and misunderstand its core features. Note the lines, 'Mr Deneen is right to point out that the record of liberalism in recent years has been dismal. He is also right to assert that the world has much to learn from the premodern notions of liberty as self-mastery and self-denial.'
The author is also likely to disagree with the idea that if we accept that liberalism is a dying ideal, we must work to find a viable substitute. The author argues against liberation from liberalism and states the liberalism must heed the call to action and reform itself.
So, option B is the correct answer choice.
