Freedom in the Well-ordered Republic

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Frank Lovett provides a fine account of civic republicanism but focuses too
exclusively on freedom as a property of choices. The account can be improved if
room is also made, as it was by figures in the long republican tradition, for
freedom as a property of persons. The well-ordered republic is a regime that
enables citizens to count equally as free persons both in relation to one another
and in relation to their government.
