What is freedom?

We are free if we

• are not owned by others (freedom is the opposite of slavery)

• are not subject to the arbitrary whims of people wielding power

• think and decide for ourselves and live our lives as we want

• can make use of opportunities and pursue our ambitions

• own property (that makes us more autonomous and less dependent on others)

• enjoy civil liberties and political rights (as they exist in liberal democracies), including the right to freedom of expression and freedom of association.
