ARISTOTLE ABOUT INTELLECTUAL
FREEDOM
● According to Aristotle, everybody
has the right to unrestricted access to
information from all viewpoints, so
long as they exercise their right to
intellectual freedom. It offers
unrestricted access to all forms of
thought expression so that all
perspectives on a problem, cause, or
movement can be studied.
ST. THOMAS ACQUAINAS ABOUT BOTH
FREEDOM
● According to St. Thomas Acquainas
about both freedom is that the will is
predisposed to no one and has the
freedom to select one over the other.
The capacity to be the finest versions
of ourselves as people comes from
the freedom to excel. Here, freedom
is rooted in the laws, or in what
constitutes a good person. A person
who follows these guidelines is free
to excel.
MEANING OF SPIRITUAL FREEDOM
● In the Christian’s perspective, true
freedom is not about doing anything
you want without restraint, but about
developing the correct desires and
living in obedience to God’s plan. In
other words, we experience freedom
when our desires line up with God’s
will.
JEAN PAUL SARTRE
● He was a major player in the
existentialism intellectual movement,
and the sociology, postcolonial ideas,
and general literary studies of the
20th century have all benefited
greatly from his work.
INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM
● In general, individual freedom refers
to a person’s ability to express
oneself and to stand equally before
the law. It covers fundamental
freedoms like the freedom to
assemble, to publish, to be secure
and free, and to maintain one’s
privacy.
THOMAS HOBBES
● He was a philosopher from England
who is credited as being one of the
fathers of contemporary political
philosophy. Hobbes is renowned for
his early and thorough elaboration of
“social contract theory,” which
justifies political ideas or agreements
by referencing the agreement that
would be reached between
appropriately situated, rational, free,
and equal people.
THEORY OF SOCIAL CONTRACT
● Hobbes describes law as a command
“delivered to one formerly
compelled to obey” the commander
in Leviathan. It is not law to issue a
directive to an unobligated party.
Since the recipient is not required to
heed advice or guidance, neither is it
a legal requirement.
WHAT IS THE LEVIATHAN
● In Jewish mythology, the term
Leviathan can be used to describe a
number of terrifying monsters, such
as a dragon, a snake, a crocodile, or a
creature that resembles a whale. It
probably originated in pre-biblical
mythology from the Middle East,
particularly from the sea monster in
the Ugaritic story of Baal.
JEAN JACQUES ROUSSEAU
● The philosopher, author, and
composer Jean-Jacques Rousseau
was from Geneva. Aspects of the
French Revolution, modern political,
economic, and educational thought,
 as well as the advancement of the
Age of Enlightenment throughout
Europe, were all affected by his
political theory.

THE SOCIAL CONTRACT

● According to the social contract
hypothesis, everyone in a society
must abide by a set of moral and
political principles before they may
coexist. Some people think that if we
follow the social compact, we can
live morally out of our own free will
rather than because a higher power
commands us to.

BF SKINNER —> THEORY OF

OPERANT CONDITIONING
● This principle states that behavior
that results in positive outcomes is
more likely to be repeated, but action
that results in negative consequences
is less likely to be repeated.
Reinforcement is a novel concept
that Skinner added to the Law of
Effect.
