or restricting freedom. I found your breakdown particularly persuasive because it didn’t just define the concepts—you also touched on their implications for how we think about power, autonomy, and the responsibilities of the state. It’s clear you understand that negative freedom aligns with classical liberalism and minimal state interference, while positive freedom opens the door to more state involvement in ensuring people have the means to lead meaningful, autonomous lives. To strengthen your analysis even more, you could include a short policy example or case study—like how Scandinavian countries balance these freedoms through social programs, or how debates around healthcare in the U.S. reflect this tension. Connecting theory to real-world politics would deepen your analysis and show how these ideas inform public policy and debates today.

This was a good and quick review of some of the philosophical views on how the state and the relation between an individual and his/her society and ultimately the state are established or structured. The course provided in-depth analysis for learners who are interested in knowing how some of the modern concepts were originally viewed and argued amongst past and modern thinkers and philosophers.

I have taken many history, law, and philosophy classes during my college career, but this is the first one that has put all of these together into one package. I loved it! It was so well put together. I am so excited to start the second half as soon as possible.

Very well organized and presented.

Lectures could be livelier and use examples tied to everyday life.

Assignments should be more demanding and require some creativity.

This course has broaden my knowledge in the role of the state to promote the welfare of its citizen. This is a course everyone must take.

This is very helpful that give thinking philosophers's view and also make us to think with open mind . Thanks a lot
