Degrees of freedom [PDF]

open access: yesSynthese, 2020
AbstractHuman freedom is in tension with nomological determinism and with statistical determinism. The goal of this paper is to answer both challenges. Four contributions are made to the free-will debate. First, we propose a classification of scientific theories based on how much freedom they allow.
