Preferred term

freedom  

Definition

  • There is little disagreement surrounding the claim that freedom is the central value of the liberal political order. However, there is little agreement regarding the proper understanding of this value and, more precisely, the kinds of constraints on individual freedom that the state would be justified in imposing. [Source: The Encyclopedia of Libertarianism; Freedom]
