DURAO, Aylton Barbieri. Critics of the conception of freedom according to Pettit’s neorepublicanism. Conjectura: filos. e Educ. [online]. 2021, vol.26, e021018.  Epub 10-Mar-2024. ISSN 2178-4612.  https://doi.org/10.18226/21784612.v26.e021018.

Pettit developed a normative version of republicanism based on the conception of freedom as non-domination, from the separation between Berlin’s negative and positive freedom, constituting a third form of freedom different from the non-interference of liberalism and the self-control of populism. However, the reconstruction of the concept of freedom in the history of philosophy shows that the negative and positive sides form two inseparable faces of the same coin, so Hobbes conceived a concept of freedom as a movement / non-impediment to support Cromwell’s republic, while Liberals, like Locke, thought of freedom as consent / non-arbitrariness and Republicans, like Machiavelli, engineered freedom as self-mastery / non-domination.

Palavras-chave : Republicanism; Freedom; Domination; Impediment; Government.
