商品描述

In this book, Binder shows that at the heart of the most prominent arguments in favour of value-neutral approaches to overall freedom lies the value freedom has for human agency and development. Far from leading to the adoption of a value-neutral approach, however, ascribing importance to freedom's agency value requires one to adopt a refined value-based approach. Binder employs an axiomatic framework in order to develop such an approach. She shows that a focus on freedom's agency value has far reaching consequences for existing results in the freedom ranking literature: it requires one to move beyond a person's given all-things-considered preferences to the values underlying a person's preference formation. Furthermore, it requires, as Binder argues, one to account (only) for those differences between choice options which really matter to people. Binder illustrates the implications of her analysis for the evaluation of public policy and human development with the capability approach: only if sufficient importance is ascribed to freedom's agency value can the capability approach keep its promises. ​

商品描述(中文翻譯)

在這本書中，Binder 表示，支持價值中立方法以促進整體自由的主要論點背後，核心在於自由對人類行動能力和發展的重要性。然而，將自由的行動價值視為重要，並不會導致採用價值中立的方法，反而需要採取一種精緻的基於價值的方法。Binder 採用公理化框架來發展這種方法。她指出，專注於自由的行動價值對現有的自由排名文獻結果有深遠的影響：這要求人們超越一個人在考慮所有因素後的偏好，深入探討一個人偏好形成背後的價值。此外，正如 Binder 所主張的，這要求僅考慮那些對人們真正重要的選擇選項之間的差異。Binder 以能力方法說明了她的分析對公共政策和人類發展評估的影響：只有當自由的行動價值被賦予足夠的重要性時，能力方法才能實現其承諾。
