Through recognizing the literature of liberty and the many different but complementary visions of a free future via the Prometheus Awards, the LFS hopes to help spread better visions of the future that help humanity overcome tyranny, slavery, war and less extreme forms of authoritarianism and achieve universal liberty and human rights for all.<\/p>\n
