    Liberty Requires Responsibility

    While Liberalism provides for the inherent freedom of each and every individual person; these freedoms and rights bring with them certain responsibilities. Most importantly, is the idea that while you have the freedom to exercise your rights, you cannot prevent somebody from exercising their rights; because if you were to prevent somebody from being free, that would be no different from somebody telling you what to do or taking away your right to be free.

     

    Questions: With reference to the above, please answer the following:-

     

    1.                  What are the responsibilities that come with the freedom of expression?

    2.                  What are the responsibilities that come with the freedom of action?

    3.                  What are the responsibilities that come with the freedom of cultural practice?

    4.                  What are the responsibilities that come with the freedom of citizenship?

    5.                  What are the responsibilities that come with the freedom of choice?
