Abstract
The point of departure for this essay is the observation that the

municipality of Lund is giving priority to handicap associations over

other forms of associations. This act can be regarded as trespassing

into the realm of civil society. In respect of this, two aspects appear

to be particularly interesting to explore. The first is to determine

the action of Lund municipality. My conclusion is that the municipality

is using the positive freedom. The second aspect that I examine is what

the municipality's duty is and what the belief is that the priority will

lead to. I show that its duty is to provide the citizens with the

positive conception of freedom and the objective with the priority is to

accomplish the positive freedom. After this I show that it is possible

to normatively justify the priority of handicap associations by using

deontologi and consequentailism. The essay concludes with a discussion

on freedom as a necessary requirement for the individual's well-being

and I offer suggestions on how the state should act with regards to

charity. (Less)
