SERRANO GOMEZ, Enrique. Negative Freedom vs Positive Freedom?. Andamios [online]. 2014, vol.11, n.25, pp.217-241. ISSN 2594-1917.

It has become commonplace to contrast negative freedom and positive freedom, as if it were two different types. In addition, there is also widespread thesis that liberalism itself is the first type of defending freedom. In this paper I propose an analysis of the famous text from Isaiah Berlin to make clear which proposal is more complex. For starters never denies the value of positive freedom; on the contrary to him that freedom is the basis of pluralism he advocates. What question is a certain conception of positive freedom, which has its origins in Rousseau, which does not accept the negative is a necessary condition of freedom in general. The characteristic of liberalism is precisely the refusal to take freedom as a necessary condition to maintain positive freedom. Finally a triadic scheme aims at McCallum style to establish a mediation between these two dimensions of freedom.
