Abstract

Freedom intake and give are caused by weak self-control that desires hedonistic pleasure, jouissance, materialism, enjoyment, and libidinal drives. Conversely, the existence of freedom aggravation (the freedom to determine one’s own peculiar desires) kept within the framework of metaxy freedom will be forced towards ethics, aesthetics, and salvation. Take and give freedom leads between vice of defect and vice of excess, as seen in Indonesia in cases such as contract marriages in Puncak Bogor and interfaith celebrity couples. This study aims to deeply examine the impact of take and give freedom in Indonesia from various aspects of karmic (karma effects) and hinged (self-beating consequences) using a library research method. This article indicates that take and give freedom falls within a legal vacuum scope, but in reality, it can operate through modus vivendi (loyalty to enemies or friends) and modus ponens (illative affirmation). Freedom has two forms: positive freedom, which means there is no modus vivendi or modus ponens, and negative freedom, where both exist. Positive freedom consists of general will (the common good/shalom) and last will. Negative freedom is more dominant in free will, as the eyes of ardent libertarians are limited by a balance of interests. Thus, everything is locked in within the best interest of balance, as legal privilege aligns with legal rights. Free will tends towards “freedom from” rather than “freedom to” due to exploitation, control, oppression, and abandonment.
