Abstract: Concludes with an elaboration of the conception of autonomy, which, it is argued, is needed to complete a properly pluralistic account of human behaviour. An incompatibilist account of free will grounded in a novel way on the radical indeterminism and causal incompleteness defended in the author's The Disorder of Thingsis introduced. Argues that genuine autonomy can be found in the dialectical relation between the individual and society.

Keywords: autonomy, causal completeness, determinism, free will, incompatibilism, indeterminism, pluralism,
