John Locke's argument of free-will problem in his An Essay Concernig Human Understanding has been seen to be sort of problematic. It is “a power to suspend the execution of any of its desires” and determinism of will that form the core of the problem. In this paper, I'm trying to resolve this problem from the libertarian point of view. There are some approaches to interpret Locke as libertarian, but they has further problems in terms of both interpretation and theory themselves. This paper gives further arguments to support their approaches and sets forth coherent interpretation of Locke's theory of freedom.
