Freedom to act as we wish, as long as no harm done.
The chapter discusses the idea that we should have the freedom to do what we want as long as we don't harm others, known as the Liberty Principle. It focuses on John Stuart Mill's arguments for this principle, which include allowing complete freedom of thought and discussion. The chapter also looks at justifications for the Liberty Principle based on rights, utility, individuality, and progress. It concludes by examining some problems with this kind of liberalism.
