Philosophie für Alle

In the organizer's words:

Freedom - principle or illusion?

Philosophical discussion with Richard Rupp, Kilian Karger and Manuel Schäfler.

Free will, a condition of democracy? Our society is based on the assumption of individual freedom. Freedom of choice is necessary for elections, and our legal system also assumes that people can act freely. Freedom is the basic concept of modern democracies, in whose constitutions freedom is usually understood as the absence of coercion, which is expressed in fundamental rights such as freedom of expression and freedom of religion. Neuroscience questions the assumption of free will. What happens if we give up free will? Do we then lose our idea of justice? Is democracy possible without free will?
