What type of barriers did liberals want to remove in the economy?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Trade and customs barriers
The governing concept is economic liberalism. Liberals favoured freer markets and wanted to reduce internal customs duties, restrictions, and other obstacles that made the movement of goods between regions difficult. Therefore option A is correct. Civil rights and equal laws were political or legal aims rather than economic barriers, while removing educational facilities would restrict society instead of promoting economic freedom.
