Negative Liberty Explained in 4 Minutes

We hear the word 'freedom' used quite often in our daily lives, but what does it actually mean? This video will discuss:
- Isaiah Berlin's concept of Negative Liberty, or what is known as being 'free from interference from others'
- John Stuart Mill's harm principle
- How this translates into our everyday experience
The purpose of The Ideas Mine is to share powerful ideas, from both the past and the present, with the hope that we can all apply them to our everyday lives and think more in-depth about how we can use these ideas to improve the quality of all of our lives.

This was so well explained and informative! It helped me so much to understand the notions of liberty, especially since I'm a student of political science. Keep going, your efforts are worth it!
