What are the interpretations of the idea of liberty that are presented in the current discussions within political philosophy? This concept, being too vague, tries to delimit itself in the three most relevant proposals within current philosophical and political debates. Two of them are given through modernity, which can be subdivided into universals, which are based on prohibitive laws and, secondly, individual, who are based on the selection of permissive laws. The third contribution is given by the communitarians, who begin to speak about the need for a liberty of plurality. It is not an objective to take any position on these proposals, therefore, defending them is something that will definitely be omitted. The objective really raised is only to present the discussions that exist around these three interpretations on liberty, arguing by thesis that, all of them become an aporia in terms of the advantages and disadvantages that theyself generate, being, therefore, fallible. Also, reconciling all these proposals is difficult, since their objectives start from opposite sides that, in trying to do so, would become counterproductive. The work is presented in three sections. The first part is dedicated to explaining the delimitation of the issue that arises and then moving on to the particular issues. The second part dedicates a space to the analysis of the two main interpretations of the idea of liberty given in modernity. Finally, an alternative to this modern concept of liberty is presented, a plural one given from community thought.
