FREEDOM IN SPINOZA, AGAIN. POSITIVE, NEGATIVE OR BOTH?
Keywords:
Spinoza, Freedom, Republicanism, DemocracyAbstract
Freedom, for Spinoza, consists in self-determination, being the cause of one’s own actions, following the necessity of his nature. This article will address this topic in four movements. The first two will investigate how specialists would have interpreted Spinoza’s freedom in positive and negative terms, respectively. The third will investigate an interpretation that states that freedom, in Spinoza, must necessarily be positive and negative at the same time. The fourth section will consist of an interpretation of Spinoza’s own freedom, demonstrating that it should be conceived in a positive way.
