Isaiah Berlin made distinctions between a 'positive' and revolutionary idea of freedom, which he believed was dangerous and violent, and the 'negative' freedom that allows people to live their lives without hindrance. From here, Adam Curtis takes us through the 20th Century, right up to the Iraq War. He shows that sometimes the revolutionary positive freedom is more desirable, by providing individuals with meaning in life, while the pursuit of democratic and capitalist negative freedom can be just as brutal.
