Christian List (LSE): “Why Free Will is Real”

The final Choice Group session for the year will be devoted to a debate on Christian List’s recently published book “Why Free Will is Real” in which he presents a conception of free will that meets the various scientific challenges to its reality. The session will begin with a brief presentation by Christian of the main claims of the book, after which Anna Mahtani and Laurenz Hudetz will comment critically on the two of its chapters, before the debate is opened to the floor. A summary of Christian’s views can be found here.
