This authoritative text concerns itself with freedom and
`alternatives to freedom', based on original survey research of
public attitudes to civil and political rights.It combines and
connects explicit and implicit arguments for freedom, with the
judgements of public opinion on two levels the general public and
politicians encouraging the reader to think about issues both in
terms of political theory and public opinion.The issues considered,
all of which may be viewed as alternatives to the narrow conception
of freedom as the absence of coercion, are: parliamentary
sovereignty the national interest responsibility accountability
equality the moral communityAlternate chapters present powerful
arguments from political figures such as Lord Armstrong, Lord
Jenkins and Roy Hattersley, based on practical experience, and then
assess public opinion for each issue.
