Who was Friedrich Naumann?

Friedrich Naumann was a German liberal politician and Protestant parish pastor. In 1894 he founded the weekly magazine Die Hilfe to address the social question from a non-marxist middle class point of view. In 1896 he also founded the National-Social Association, in an attempt to provide a social liberal alternative to the Social Democrats, that could address the growing social rift between rich industrialists and the poor working class. The Friedrich Naumann Foundation of the liberal Free Democratic Party is named after him.
