Episode notes
Three Philosophies Of Freedom
- Thorsten Polleit distinguishes three concepts of freedom: negative, positive, and will-based freedom.
- These distinct definitions shape how we judge whether people are truly free or merely seem free.
Freedom Derived From Human Action
- Polleit argues individual freedom follows logically from the nature of human action and bodily ownership.
- He claims self-ownership and non-aggressive acquisition of external goods are apodictic consequences of action logic.
Freedom Requires Non-Aggression
- The non-aggression principle is central: freedom exists when unsolicited coercion and violence are excluded.
- Respecting others' bodies and property is a necessary condition for individual freedom.
