Freedom of Will and Freedom of Action

Proceedings and Addresses of the American Philosophical Association, 1985
Descartes held that the will is perfectly free, "so free in its nature that it cannot be constrained."2 "Let everyone just go down deep into himself," he is reported to have said to Frans Burman, "and find out whether or not he has a perfect and absolute will, and whether he can conceive of anything which surpasses him in freedom of the will.

Neutral Freedom and Freedom as Control

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2015
I present a model of freedom as control. Control is measured by the preferences of a decision-maker, or judge, who values flexibility and is neutral towards outcomes ex ante.

The Limits of Freedom and the Freedom of Limits

2016
When we conceive of “freedom” as the absence of limitations, it is easy to associate green politics with coercion and restriction. This troubling linkage frames environmentalism as hostile to freedom as such, and even leads many green theorists to doubt its relevance to environmental political theory.

FREEDOM FOR BANKS

The Journal of Finance, 1975
THE BANK holding company movement since 1968 has been a search by the banking industry for flexibility with which to increase its line of products, the markets which it serves, and its access to funds. Banking legislation for most of the twentieth century has been of a restrictive character designed to meet real or potential problems.
