In recent time liberalism and rational development of the relations between the union and the separation process is an important aspect of the development of modern political thoughts. Liberal ideology is built on the basis of rational philosophy. Rationality fully goes into every aspect of liberalism, it played a huge role in the authority. It is this internal system of rational liberalism in the excessive publicity made it encountered strong criticism, treatment of rational criticism in political philosophy since the 18th century has become an important part of development. This paper came out with emphasis in the development of the relationship between 17, 18 century. First, emphasize what is rationality, it is a philosophy, with a philosophical perspective to explain its concept. Secondly, introduce on the relationship between rationality and liberalism. 17, 18 century the two formed a deep bond. Rationality has been the supremacy of the established liberal thinkers, how such status is established? What is the content? Following on the comprehensive exposition of the close ties between the two since 17,18 century. Finally, as a rational liberal ideology of the great effects of suspicion and makes it encountered fierce criticism. Then the last part of the deal introduce to the contents of rational criticism. Rational thinkers from different angles began to criticize it, and gradually eliminated out from the rational liberalism authority.This paper is divided into five parts: part one, a rationality meaning here from a philosophical perspective to clarify the meaning of the rationality. The content is divided into three parts: the experience rationality,the concept rationality, the scientific rationality. So we can see the inherent nature of the rationality. Part two, 17, 18 century liberalism toward the rational belief,in part, The overall development of relations, a rational argument to consider the relationship between the two. In the fourth section of rational criticism fully expounded. Part three, the 17th century a rational authority established liberalism system. Here is divided into four sections stated. Firstly, a rational theory of human nature -- the logical point of liberalism. Secondly, natural law and the social contract are based on a rational basis of the theory. Thirdly, the form is only theoretical. Fourthly, refer to Kant's Practical Reason and liberalism. This four-part fully demonstrates the rational development of liberalism. The two are inseparable. Part four, rational criticism since the 18th century, here is divided into five sections. Firstly, refer to human emotions -- the counterattack on rational human of rationality authority. Secondly, refer to natural law -- non- Rational rules. Thirdly, refer to social contract theory is the non-Rational contract. Rational thinking in liberalism is criticized in par two and part three. Fourthly, refer to the separation of fact and value, highlighting Hume's anti-rational thinking. Fifthly, Hegel's absolutely rational and his rational criticism. Hegel criticized the entire system of liberal according to absolutely rationality. In the final part is a review briefly based on the conclusion of the relationship between liberalism and rationality.In the western politic philosophy developing process, liberalism and the rational development relations are one of important relations, we take conclusion from this article on 17, 18th century the relations that the rationality in the thought history is a thing which forever all exists, it not only is stipulating people's thought, also is stipulating life each domain. We must correctly deal with two relations, achieves the unification of cordiality, the unification of the rationality and the non- rationality, the person should display the non- rational factor under the rational factor, the non- rational factor must accept rational factor restriction, if not the rationality, human's non-rationality will lose the direction. Only we have the correct development relations of rationality and the liberalism thought, we can truly play the rational role.
