Beskrivelse fra Saxo DK
What does liberty entail? How have concepts of liberty changed over time? And what are the global consequences? This book surveys the history of rival views of liberty from antiquity to modern times.

reality. Yet, with the Whig vision of a free state and civil society undermined by the American Revolution of 1776, Skinner explores how claims that liberty was fulfilled by an absence of physical or coercive restraint came to prominence.

The concept of liberty is inherently global, and Skinner argues strongly for the reinstatement of the understanding of liberty as independence.
