While negative freedom may be characterized as an absence of coercion or physical prevention, and republican freedom as an absence of interpersonal domination, positive freedom resists such pithy treatment. Moreover, this isn’t due to a lack of possible elucidations but due to an overabundance of them. The term is widely taken to refer to a variety of seemingly distinct goods, including but not limited to actually exercisable options or capabilities (Crocker ; Gould ); collective self-determination (Taylor : ; R. Dworkin : ); individual, psychological self-government (Christman ; Hirschmann ; Carter ); and self-realization or flourishing (Skinner ; Bilgrami ). Indeed the term’s most influential purveyor himself, Isaiah Berlin (a), seems to characterize positive freedom in mutually inconsistent ways within the space of only a few pages. Why is this? Part of the explanation, though not all of it, is a persistent but often unacknowledged tendency to think of the distinction between positive and negative freedom as exhaustive. If the distinction is exhaustive, then positive freedom is any freedom that isn’t negative, and vice versa. If negative freedom is narrowly defined, as it usually is (in terms, say, of noncoercion or physical nonprevention), then positive freedom must be widely defined. “Positive freedom” thus becomes a catch-all term for any rag-tag number of heterogeneous conceptions, united only in their rejection of the negative approach. After all, one thing that capabilities, collective self-determination, psychological self-government, and self-realization all have in common is the fact that none of them is equivalent to mere","PeriodicalId":274286,"journal":{"name":"Positive Freedom","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116778399","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
