Within the Colloque Lippmann, uncritical liberal purists were a marginalized minority.

Evidence

If Rüstow believed that liberalism required a dramatic revision of its very philosophical foundations, the members of this group appeared suspicious of the notion that it required any substantial revision at all. This uncritical adherence to liberalism was not broadly accepted within the “Colloque Lippmann,” however, and its advocates remained a vocal and dissatisfi ed minority. — Angus Burgin, The Great Persuasion, 191
