Exposé de Philip Pettit lors de l'inauguration du Centre européen d’études républicaines (CÈDRE).
The neo-liberal ideal of freedom as non-interference is anti-state in taking all coercive laws to be inimical as such to freedom; and pro-market in taking all market exchanges to be contractual and voluntary. It projects the image of a competitive free-for-all in which choices are maximized and the state only provides a very basic safety net. The neo-republican ideal of freedom as non-domination is pro-state to the limited extent that law-making can be disciplined by electoral and contestatory control, and rendered un-dominating. And it is anti-market to the extent, again limited, that market exchanges establish or facilitate relationships in which the stronger dominate the weaker. It hails an image of a democratically ordered society in which citizens are secure enough as free persons to pass the eyeball test: to be able to look one another in the eye without reason for fear or deference.
