Resumen
Are we free? What does "freedom" mean here? In the following, I shall only focus with freedom oi action. My main thesis is that there is not just one basic type of free action but more. Philosophers, howeverl tend to assume that there is just one way to act freely. Hence, a more detailed analysis of free action is being called foro I will distinguish between different kinds offree action and discuss the relations between them. The analysis of different types of coercion will lead to a different view on freedom -a view which stresses the many faces of free action-.
