Abstract

This paper investigates the federalist papers, while stressing the significance of the
individual liberty in the US political system. The main intention of this paper is to
locate and to define the current state of the individual liberty in the US, taking into
account the US political authorities’ attitude. This research derives from the
following research question: What are the challenges of the individual liberty in the
US as a human right taking into account the federalist papers? The US federalist
papers are treated as a “Constitution” of the individual liberty, and its driving force.
Besides the right to life, this human right emerges as the second but not less
significant that the latter. The individual liberty confirms the right to life and the
right to live in a free, prosperous and democratic society, where the state power is
limited by the human rights, and thus, guaranteeing the well – being of the people.
The individual liberty as a basic human right, especially recognizable for the US,
remains as a main pillar of the US democratic political system, historically
established by the founding fathers. At the end, this paper concludes that the
individual liberty is taken, not given by the state, and thus, it must be improved and
preserved, as a bulwark against the destructive forces of the state and its repressive
apparatus.
