Beschreibung

ABSRACT: The coronavirus pandemic apparently has become the most pressing challenge of the beginning of the 21st century. The measures undertaken by national governments for containing the COVID-19 pandemic go along with fundamental restrictions of civil rights and constraints of civil liberties with huge restrictions for economic activities, too. In our contribution we want to discuss these restrictions from a liberal point of view as it is outlined in John Stuart Mill’s essay “On Liberty” and draws some conclusions about the legitimacy of the preset restrictions of civil and economic liberties in cases of pandemic diseases.
