Freedom and Consent Sample Clauses

Freedom and Consent. Each consent theory is a theory of freedom. The consumer theory finds the essence of freedom in individual choice of a product, whereas the participant theory sees freedom only in belonging to a truly self- governing polity. Nevertheless, both theories embody conceptions of freedom in which government by the state appears as a far more coercive form of human interaction than does government by a private residential association. The consumer consent theory sees even in democratic government a constant threat to the liberty found in private arrangements reached through voluntary contract. The best that can be achieved in a decision by the state is majority consent and minority submission. But '[t]he ideal is unanimity,' and only the market 'permits unanimity without [forcing] conformity' upon a minority.38 The theory of participant consent, on the other hand, criticizes the representative and professional nature of our national and local governments, contrasting the false or weak democracy of representative government with the special moral legitimacy of the fully participatory association. … In contrast to representative government, participatory democracy creates continuous self- government for the members of a community. According to the theory of participant consent, 'political freedom . . . means the right 'to be a participator in government,' or it means nothing.'41 For both types of consent theorist, the contrast between the coercive nature of the state and the freedom found in the private association militates against assimilating the residential association to the state by subjecting the association to constitutional restraints. People should be left free to form private residential governments in which they may opt out of the background civil rights they enjoy against the federal, state, and municipal governments.
