Markets have often been seen as the embodiment of individual choice. Does freedom mean that the ends or goals which an individual chooses are beyond moral assessment or does choice involve some reference to moral standards and, if so, what can be the source and basis of such standards if in fact they do seem to be necessary? If freedom has to be linked to ideas about virtue and the greater value of some sorts of goods over others how can such judgements be justified -- aren't we just imposing our own choices in order to restrict the choices of others? The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website Gresham College has been giving free public lectures since 1597. This tradition continues today with all of our five or so public lectures a week being made available for free download from our website. There are currently nearly 1,500 lectures free to access or download from the website. Website Twitter Facebook\n
