Resumo

Em Sobre a Liberdade, John Stuart Mill apresenta uma série de argumentos em defesa da liberdade intelectual que ainda hoje são invocados. O presente artigo mostra como esses argumentos nascem de um diagnóstico da época que pode ser amplamente ampliado com a crítica do presente que também Tocqueville e Kierkegaard oferecem, ressaltando ainda as diferenças no tipo de individualidade que cada projeto de liberdade intelectual busca colocar em foco. Por fim, consideramos a atenção que Kierkegaard dedica ao problema das ilusões coletivas e a necessidade de que esse ponto seja integrado à nossa discussão sobre a liberdade de discussão.
