Summary
Milton Friedman polarizes. He regards the »freedom to starve« to be the ultimate social goal which can be made by society and rejects the idea that businesses should be socially responsible. Björn Görder analyzes Friedman's negative concept of freedom in the context of its epistemological and anthropological assumptions and illustrates its political consequences.
