The compatibilistic point of view has some similarities with the deterministic point of view; they also suppose that the idea of free choice is not real as all our decisions are determined by the causes. But the fact is that compatibilists think that it is possible to connect the notion of free choice and the notion of caused choice. According to their name they try to prove that free choice and determination could be compatible, in other word they have the opportunity to co-operate in one field.
Nowadays, a great variety of such models can create compatibility. One of the most popular models proposed by A.J. Ayer published in his work ‘Freedom and Necessity’.
It is based on the moral principles which should be followed by each person when he or she is going to make a free choice in order to reach the goal. Well, in order to do such actions the person should have freedom for it and here the problem appears connected to the deterministic point of view about the causality of freedom.
Ayer tries to contrast freedom and causality using some limitations. He points that if the person has the reasons for the action it does not mean that he or she is limited. So, our actions are determined only at that case when the person is not free or obliges to be limited.
Well, here is the time to decide when and under which circumstances the person could be constrained. As for Ayer, he proposed three situations. Firstly, if the person has the ability to redone it, secondly, when the actions have deliberate character, and, finally, there is nobody who can force the person to do it. So, if one of such situation is not present only then we can say that there is no place for free choice.
The example of constraint actions can be the case with kleptomaniac, or if someone pushed you to do something and for its purpose uses the gun.
