Concept information
Preferred term
self-direction and self-ownership
Definition(s)
- The terms self-direction and self-ownership can be used in many different ways. For present purposes, it is best to take self-direction to refer to a possible and (putatively) morally portentous feature of persons' lives and to take self-ownership to refer to a central moral right that persons may be thought to possess by virtue of their respective (capacity for) self-direction and/or the value, significance, or moral import of their (capacity for) self-direction.
