Liberty is the right to be left alone, while freedom is the right to participate in a political community. How people view democracy depends on which of these two rights they think is more important.

Reviews
"In The People's Government, Del Dickson advances a new and imaginative way to think about democracy. By explaining and clarifying the differences between freedom and liberty, Dickson teaches us that the type of democracy people prefer depends on the relative emphasis placed on one of these rights. In doing so, The People's Government dissipates some of the conceptual fog surrounding political science's many understandings of democracy, while leaving the reader with a deeper and stronger sense of the real stakes involved in this increasingly popular form of government." Efrn O. Prez, Vanderbilt University, "An engaging and provocative analysis of freedom, liberty, rights, and democracy, The People's Government will find a wide audience across a range of disciplines - from history and law to philosophy and political theory." David M. O'Brien, Leone Reaves and George W. Spicer Professor, University of Virginia
