..., distribution according to blameworthiness?

... to skepticism about knowledge or the existence of the external world” (19). Instead, Brink mines the existing criminal law to learn when it is that we deny agents are blameworthy, such that we can learn what is required for responsibility. Valuable and interesting discussions and insights pervade...

..., extends the discussion of meaning to a novel account of blame. On the account proposed, impermissible actions need not be blameworthy and vice versa. And this is because blameworthiness relates to the meaning of an action and in particular to what that action implies for the future relationship one...

... that blameworthiness is prior to blaming. Against these metaphysical accounts, the Strawsonian view claims that any such facts about responsibility depend on our practices and are not prior to, or independent of, them.

However, this reliance on practical syllogism to explain moral responsibility is problematic within the context of Plato’s writings, as Plato does not explicitly employ this model to describe human actions. Instead, Plato often indicates that some actions are blameworthy despite not stemming...

.... The deontic argument says, roughly, that an agent is blameworthy for an action only if the action is wrong and that an action is wrong only if it is avoidable. Therefore, blameworthy actions are avoidable. Combined with the view that determinism precludes alternatives, we may conclude that determin- ism...
