For instance, say I am under a system of chattel slavery in the ancient world, or in the early 1800s in America, the "slave" was only called that because of the external factors placed upon them; however, slaves could try and escape and could do things they were externally forbidden to do; the question is whether the risk of the consquences would disuade the "slave" from making those decisions. Simply an internal decision which cannot be changed by external means, directly.
