The Berkeley lecture on Conscience and Liberty was given by Shklar as a talk to faculty and students in 1990. This was almost two years before she delivered the lectures on political obligation to her students at Harvard. This lecture offers a condensed version of the lectures and links them to Shklar’s own political-theoretical development at this moment in time.
Keywords: conscience, liberty, American political development, negative liberty, positive liberty
