  This fact is closely tied to another. Like many accounts that stress an autonomous agent’s responsiveness to reasons, responsiveness- to-reasoning accounts often suggest that self-government requires the capacity for self-transformation. On this assumption, an autonomous agent is someone who can change her mind when she discovers good reason to do  so.[7]  In contrast, strict coherentists insist that it is possible to act autonomously while being moved by desires that are not only irresistible when they produce their effects, but so integral to one’s identity that one could not possibly will to resist them.[8]
