Abstract

Bei der Rechtfertigung der Freiheit geht es um die Optimierung des Wissens und der Anreize. Freiheit dient der optimalen Nutzung des vorhandenen Wissens und der optimalen Produktion neuen Wissens, und sie gibt dem handelnden Individuum die bestmöglichen Anreize. Der Verfasser analysiert die Geschichte dieser Rechtfertigungen. Informationsökonomische Begründungen verdanken wir Adam Smith, Jeremy Bentham, Wilhelm von Humboldt, John Stuart Mill, Friedrich von Hayek und Karl Popper. Anreiztheoretische Begründungen finden sich bei Thomas von Aquin, Adam Smith und James Mill. Der Verfasser wendet sich gegen den Versuch, die Freiheit oder das Recht auf Eigentum evolutionstheoretisch mit der natürlichen Auslese zu rechtfertigen. Schließlich geht er der Frage nach, inwieweit das klassische Freiheitsziel mit anderen Zielen – dem Effizienzziel, der staatlichen Durchsetzung von Verträgen, der individuellen Wahlfreiheit, der politischen Partizipation und dem sozialistischen Freiheitsbegriff – vereinbar ist.
