Does free will exist? | Paul Broks, Hannah Dawson, Hilary Lawson & Julian Baggini

Hannah Dawson, Hilary Lawson, Paul Broks and Julian Baggini ask who's really in control. Watch the full debate at https://iai.tv/video/in-search-of-fre... Once it was straightforward. We were born free and shackled by self-serving authority. Now from neuroscientists to social theorists, many argue that we were never free in the first place. Constrained by our genes, manipulated by technology and the cultural zeitgeist, there seems little space left for individual autonomy. Should we conclude that the very idea of freedom was a mistake, which once abandoned will enable us to reframe human behaviour and success and create a more equal society? #freedom #philosophy #freewill Paul Broks is an English neuropsychologist and science writer.
