Biography
Annalisa Costella is a PhD student at Erasmus School of Philosophy and at the Erasmus Institute for Philosophy and Economics (EIPE). She works on the relationship between individuals’ preferences and freedom of choice. She investigates in what ways (if at all) an individual’s preferences affect her freedom (to choose) and, conversely, in what ways expansions or restrictions of freedom influence the formation of preferences. She aims to offer a descriptive account of how preferences and freedom (of choice) interact as well as investigate how they ought to do so.
