VOCABULARY OF PHILOSOPHY – AUTOCRASY

AUTOCRASY (αὐτός, self; and κρατέω, to rule).—Underived power. Absolute power within the being itself. «The Divine will is absolute, it is its own reason, it is both the producer and the ground of all its acts. It moves not by the external impulse or inclination of objects, but determines itself by an absolute autocracy » (South, vol. VII. ser. X.).
