"calling anything deterministic requires a dualistic or objective perspective (the observer is treated as separate from the deterministic phenomena he perceives)"
self-determinist requires a monist or holistic perspective (the observer is treated as part of the phenomena he perceives)
Determinism only requires that all events be inevitable and can be the case whether you're a dualist or monist.
Self-determination is the process by which a person controls their own life, and can be the case whether you're a dualist or monist.
