LIBERTY AND AUTHORITY.
By Lord HUGH CECIL, M.P.
Crown 8vo., buckram. 2s. 6d.
This pithy volume contains an address delivered by the author on the occasion of his inauguration as President of the Associated Societies of the University of Edinburgh. He does not trench upon the difficult ground of metaphysics, but takes as his subject for discussion Political Liberty and its Limitations and Objects. In the course of the address the interesting thesis is evolved that Liberty consists in the power of doing, not what others approve of, but what they disapprove of, and that if an individual has not the right to do what others deprecate, he is not free at all. This thesis is tested by application to several of the political problems of our own day.
