Liberty by David Miller Pdf

All states and political movements in the world today proclaim themselves in favor of liberty. But what precisely does it mean to say that a person or society is free? The essays collected in this book represent the best analyses of the concept of liberty offered by political theorists over the last century. They contain a wide range of views about what liberty consists of and how it may be promoted and chosen to represent the spectrum of political opinion. David Miller's introduction provides a comprehensive overview of the debate, placing recent contributions within traditions of thought about liberty that stretch back to ancient Greece. This book will be of interest to undergraduate and graduate students in politics, political theory, and political philosophy.

Reflecting on these questions reveals a surprisingly rich landscape of ideas - and further questions. "The Liberty Reader" collects twelve of the most important and insightful essays on issues of freedom currently available.

Rethinking Positive and Negative Liberty by Maria Dimova-Cookson Pdf

This book argues that the distinction between positive and negative freedom remains highly pertinent today, despite having fallen out of fashion in the late twentieth century. It proposes a new reading of this distinction for the twenty-first century, building on the work of Constant, Green and Berlin who led the historical development of these ideas. The author defends the idea that freedom is a dynamic interaction between two inseparable, yet sometimes fundamentally, opposed positive and negative concepts – the yin and yang of freedom. Positive freedom is achieved when one succeeds in doing what is right, while negative freedom is achieved when one is able to advance one’s wellbeing. In an environment of culture wars, resurging populism and challenge to progressive liberal values, recognising the duality of freedom can help us better understand the political dilemmas we face and point the way forward. The book analyses the duality of freedom in more philosophical depth than previous studies and places it within the context of both historical and contemporary political thinking. It will be of interest to students and scholars of liberalism and political theory.

The Liberty Reader (Classic Reprint) by Bernard M. Sheridan Pdf

Excerpt from The Liberty Reader Nothing was admitted to the pages of the Liberty Reader which in my judgment the ordinary boy or girl Of thirteen or fourteen years of age cannot read and understand without much assistance or explanation from the teacher. Further than this, almost every line of the book can be read aloud without difficulty by upper grammar grade pupils of fair reading ability. Every selection was tested not only for the simplicity Of its thought, but also for the Simplicity of its expression. The vocabulary is exceptionally free from difficulties. This is a very important quality, in my judg ment, because a book of this kind should always be read aloud. A book that informs may be read silently without any serious loss of its values; a book that inspires has its power increased in direct ratio to the number of pupils who Share its message together.
