This chapter, titled "Governing Liberty: Administering Economic, Social and Personal Life," explores the complex relationship between government and individual liberty in modern societies. Nikolas Rose argues that contemporary governance operates not through direct coercion, but through shaping choices and influencing conduct. He examines how various techniques and strategies, including risk management, audits, and performance indicators, are deployed to manage populations and individuals in areas such as the economy, social welfare, and personal life. The chapter highlights the ways in which these forms of governance, while often presented as promoting freedom and choice, can subtly constrain and regulate individuals, creating a new form of 'governing at a distance.'
