<![CDATA[This article aims to explore the philosophical perspectives on the "Merdeka Belajar" (Independent Learning) policy in the context of freedom and responsibility in education. Using a qualitative approach through literature analysis, this article delves into the philosophical concepts of freedom and responsibility from educational thinkers such as Ki Hadjar Dewantara, Paulo Freire, and John Dewey, while evaluating the implementation of this policy in Indonesia. The results show that the "Merdeka Belajar" policy has had a positive impact on student motivation for independent learning, but still faces challenges in implementation, such as insufficient understanding by teachers and limited infrastructure support.

In conclusion, despite the challenges, this policy holds significant potential to shape a generation of learners who are intelligent, critical, and responsible.]]>
