As sovereignty evolved from kingdoms to nations, another force emerged—the sovereignty of the individual. But how did individualism reshape the relationship between the state and its citizens?

Roosevelt’s Four Freedoms, discover how the balance between personal liberty and government power continues to shape our world today.
