Abstract

This Note is an attempt at showing how the problem of planning for freedom discussed in (Eilon, S. 1976. Planning and freedom. Editorial. OMEGA, Internal. J. Management Sci. 4 (5) 501–505; Singhal, K., V. Vyasulu. 1978. More on planning for freedom. Management Sci. 24 (5) 581–584; van Gigch, J. P. 1976. Planning for freedom. Management Sci. 22 949–961; van Gigch, J. P. 1977. A management science approach to planning freedom—A Rejoinder. OMEGA, Internal. J. Management Sci. 5 (1)) can be formalized in terms of so-called “freedom functions” which express the distribution of rights in a society. It is argued that the approach analogous to that used in Arrow's Impossibility Theorem for social welfare functions would require determining first the class of all feasible freedom functions.
