UAB Master on Contemporanean Philosophy: Contribution to theory of action and to the problem of human freedom



At the Philosophy of science and cognitive sciences subject of the MA in contemporanean Philosophy at UAB I am working on a consistent theory of action that solves the philosophical and common controverse around human freedom. Are we free? Or are we just completely determined by our biological constitution, our instincts and desires, anybody else's actions, society as a huge structure of power, politicians, big bosses and publicity? Are we totally determined by a wide range of factor to the point that we cannot say that human subjects are free or we can affirm that human subjects are free because they carry out free actions, particularly, moral actions? All these questions are interesting not only for experts but for everyone who is curious about who (he or she) is. Hope we can solve them in the near future.
