Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to present Józef Tischner’s notion about negative and positive liberty. He does not oppose the first but, in his opinion, positive liberty is complementary to negative liberty (as freedom from restraint and interference by other persons and/or the state) and it has greater importance. However, Tischner defines positive liberty differently than Berlin. Primarily, for him, it is the possibility of doing Good.
