Currently, the neurosciences challenge the concept of will to be
scientifically untenable, specifying that it is our brain rather
than our "self" that decides what we want to do. At the same time,
we seem to be confronted with increasing possibilities and
necessities of free choice in all areas of social life. Based on
up-to-date (empirical) research in the social sciences and
philosophy, the authors convened in this book address this seeming
contradiction: By differentiating the physical, the psychic, and
the social realm, the neuroscientific findings can be acknowledged
within a comprehensive framework of selves in neoliberal societies.
