Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Really good. since I'm on an "legal theory and origins of law" kick, this was perfect.
Skinner breaks down the origins of the concept of "freedom" and "liberty" and 'republics'. It ends up being quite a complex development, referencing classical Greek and Roman philosophy and historical practices they were based upon, up to contemporary situations. It explains a lot for me.
Thanks for posting; recommended watching.
