Conditional analysis of free will and consequence argument
The conditional analysis of the meaning of the phrase “free will” is a classical compatibilist strategy, first introduced by David Hume and still widely used by compatibilists.

| description | The conditional analysis of the meaning of the phrase “free will” is a classical
compatibilist strategy, first introduced by David Hume and still widely used by
compatibilists. The consequence argument is an influential argument against

incompatible with alternative possibilities for any agent. In this article, I consider
the relationship between the consequence argument and classical compatibilism. I
demonstrate that the consequence argument uses premises that should be rejected
by proponents of the counterfactual conditional analysis of free will |
