The question of whether human beings are free has been dealt with by different thinkers from different perspectives throughout the history and different opinions have been put forward in this regard. While Spinoza and Kant agreed that reason is a means of freedom in a determinist world, they have put forward different understandings about how this will be revealed. Spinoza states that there can be no freedom of will or will for man, and that man can be free if he makes rational decisions and acts without being guided by passions such as desire and fear. For Spinoza, who considers God to be a necessary and free being, necessity and freedom belong only to God. According to Spinoza, man cannot be free because he has some emotions. The only way for human emancipation is to intuitively grasp the divine order. For Spinoza, reason appears as a mind that is aware of the necessity of the law of nature. In Kant, this situation appears as the mind that makes the law in itself. According to Kant, he argues that man is the determinant of his own action through reason and that human beings can be an autonomous being in this context. Freedom appears as an ide produced by the human mind. According to Kant, only one who can act in accordance with the moral law can be called free. Freedom is an ethical value that is unique to the individual. While Spinoza associates freedom on the basis of body by thinking of the mind through the body, Kant by thinking the mind through the subject; freedom on the basis of the subject. In our study, the concept of freedom is discussed within the framework of Kant and Spinoza's philosophy. |
