During our gatherings, we'll learn and discuss diverse philosophical themes, with a soft moderation by the organizer. Each session kick-starts from a brief suggested reading, making it accessible to everyone.

This week, we will delve into the ideas of Phillip Pettit, a prominent Irish political theorist, as we explore the complex nature of freedom. 🤔💭

Pettit challenges the idea of freedom as mere absence of interference, suggesting instead that true freedom is defined as non-domination—freedom from arbitrary power, rather than simply being left alone.

Prepare to dive deep into the philosophical waters of freedom and its implications in our lives today! 🌊✨

Come curious and ready to engage in a rich dialogue with fellow thinkers! 🌟
