In the citing paper
“But Wille and Willkür are two aspects of human freedom as such, 78 and it would make no sense to say that a person may exhibit Willkür without being also possessed of Wille.”
From Kant on Capital Punishment and Suicide (2006) · cites this paper as Benson (1987), 571
In the citing paper
“Now, we have seen that Kant's view of freedom involves the distinction between Wille and Willkür -and that it is the latter that accounts for a free, imputable act, which is freely made even where it is made irrationally, i.e., against the dictates of Wille as practical reason.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
