Liberty pertains to freedom or the state of being free. Liberty is a right or privilege which gives you the power to act the way you want to. Liberty should be valued and respected rather than misusing it. Liberty is centred round the concept of liberalism which advocates freedom and equal rights to all. Freedom of religion, speech and expression, liberal democracy are some of the factors which provide liberty to the people of a nation. Liberty is a concept which gives the freedom to a human being to act according to his or her own free will and take the responsibility for his action, later on.
In the words of Thomas Jefferson, “Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.” In the feudal societies, “liberty” was a part of the allodia land in which the rule of the monarch had been waived.
