Is there free will?
Category: Philosophy
Status: Queued
If the universe is governed by physical law (deterministic or probabilistic), in what sense are our choices 'up to us'? Compatibilists hold that free will is compatible with determinism; libertarians deny determinism; hard determinists deny free will.
Recent neuroscience findings on the timing of conscious decision have been claimed to bear on the debate, but their philosophical implications are contested.
