Summary/Abstract: In this paper, I want to show the concept of freedom in the vision of philosophers who advocate liberalism. The German magazine for European opinion Merkur published a double issue under the title Limits of state action. On freedom and paternalism (year 64, volume 9/10, September/October 2010), in which more than thirty important philosophers wrote their works. Among them, I chose texts by authors who dedicated their contributions to prominent philosophers of freedom, namely Baruch de Spinoza, John Locke, David Hume, Adam Smith, Immanuel Kant, Edmund Burke, Wilhelm von Humboldt, Alexis de Tocqueville, John Stuart Mill, Karl Popper, Milton Friedman and Friedrich August von Hayek. I will present the texts about them hermeneutically and give a critical review of each of them, and at the end of the paper a concluding critical review about freedom in the ideology of liberalism.
