Position Paper
Liberalism is the collection of ideologies committed to the principle of the dignity and freedom
of the individual as the foundation of society and has respect for the sovereignty for the reasoning of
the individuals. It emphasizes the individuals to be aware and protect their rights and freedoms and
allows them to present their opinions if they feel they are being threatened. The source presented to us
is explaining that government leaders or individuals who have secured their liberty should guard their
opposition and help them protect their freedom to avoid becoming a target of the enemy if things fall
through. “What he does to others will be done to him” is a saying that helps us to understand the
underlying theme of the quotation in the source. The source respects the dignity of every individual and
recognizes and protects the rights and freedoms of the citizens. We should embrace the perspective
reflected in the source and become aware of the point they are trying to portray. It can be a very good
lesson so we can prevent repeating events that have happened in history and can keep peace between
people of different societies.
If the leaders/ individuals do if they want to avoid an event similar to the one they inflicted on
their enemies will occur to them as well don’t protect the rights of others they cannot expect their rights
to be respected in return.
