Could you help me fix the nuances of liberal intervention?
Can I take it to mean "free" intervention? Or "non prejudiced" intervention? Or ...?

I'm afraid it has been broken beyond repair.

No fansy, it is referring to people of a certain political categorization..

Without the context of the word it is impossible to tell which meaning liberal is supposed to have.

Can you give the paragraph it is located in?

It could well mean political persuasion but it could also be "too much."

Here is the context
There are no pressure groups of any note that draw attention to the Congolese situation. In the media there is barely a word. The politicians are silent. Yet if ever there were a case for the outside world to intervene on humanitarian grounds alone - "liberal interventionism" - then surely this is it.

In Chinese "liberal interventions" is translated literally into "free interventions" (a back translation). is that right?
