VICTIMLESS CRIMES In his introductory essay, Meadowcroft defends individual liberty of action by citing John Stuart Mill's "On Liberty.
But there are exceptions; restraints of trade and interference with individual liberty of action may be justified by the special circumstances of a particular case.
Negative liberty has to do with action and positive liberty has to do with will, so rather than taking about negative or positive liberty, perhaps it would be more appropriate to talk about liberty of action or liberty of desire (will which is self-determined).
