Foundations of Freedom: Welfare-Based Arguments Against Paternalism - Routledge Studies in Contemporary Philosophy
Clarke, Simon R. (Formerly of University of Canterbury, New Zealand)
What makes individual freedom valuable? People have always believed in freedom, have sought it, and have sometimes fought and died for it. The belief that it is something to be valued is widespread. But does this belief have a rational foundation? This book examines answers to these questions that are based on the welfare of the person whose freedom is at stake.
