    Voluntary Actions

    • Originate from the individual, using knowledge of the situation.
    • Classified as voluntary: actions performed willingly and through reason.
    • Related to compulsion: mixed voluntary/involuntary, more voluntary if a choice was made, more involuntary if options were deemed less desirable.

    Involuntary Actions

    • Acts done under force or coercion.
    • Ignorance: acts where the actor didn't understand the effect and regrets the outcome.

    Intellectual Choice vs. Practical Choice

    • Intellectual choice: normative answers based on a moral standpoint.
    • Practical choice: choices made in real-life situations based on psychology and emotions.

    Balancing Freedom and Responsibility

    • Freedom is essential for individual expression and personal growth. It involves the ability to make choices.
    • Responsibility entails being accountable for actions and their consequences.

    • Feudal societies (9th-15th centuries) were based on land grants and loyalty.

    Industrial Society

    • Driven by mass production technology; characteristic of many early economies like the US. Focuses on manufacturing.

    Post-Industrial Society

    Digital Society and the Information Age

    • Digital citizenship requires active participation, including engagement with societal issues and utilizing digital platforms responsibly.

    Human Person and Death
