DESCRIPTION:<p>ABSTRACT. An autonomous life &ndash\; that is\, a life which is shaped\, to a considerable extent\, by the values and choices of the person whose life it is &ndash\; is\, other things being equal\, for this reason better than a life that lacks such self-directedness. But we should distinguish between autonomy understood as a harmony between one&rsquo\;s life and one&rsquo\;s deep commitments &ndash\; which I call non-alienation &ndash\; and autonomy understood as having the final word on the relevant issue &ndash\; which I call sovereignty. Both non-alienation and sovereignty are of value\, but what is the relation between them? I argue that non-alienation is the more fundamental value\, but that sovereignty nevertheless achieves some independence from the value of non-alienation that ultimately grounds it. I also argue that when it comes to politics\, it&rsquo\;s sovereignty rather than non-alienation that usually takes center stage. And I show &ndash\; in a preliminary way &ndash\; how the distinction between non-alienation and sovereignty and the relations between them is productive in thinking about nudging and about false consciousness.</p>\n
