As a masterpiece of the liberty tradition, The Oxford Handbook of Freedom is a refreshing alternative to the voluminous literature dominated by the debates over John Rawls's works. Rawls's liberty principle and political liberalism have been for decades the most discussed concepts in political philosophy. Philosophers explored in great detail the theoretical subtleties of Rawls's ideas and their relationships with other theories: utilitarian, contractarian, Kantian, Marxist, feminist, communitarian, postmodern, and others. The theoretical explorations also strongly affected the domain of political doctrines, where liberal egalitarian and social democratic ideals colonized public political discourse. Other conceptions of liberty and liberalism have been pushed under the shadow of that predominant paradigm. The Handbook demonstrates that the leading paradigm is not the only one, and, apparently, not the best one.
