It would be 15 hard to understand any society or culture without understanding the characteristic 16 occasions upon which shame is expected and where it is mitigated.

  • Is Semicompatibilism Unstable?
    Is Semicompatibilism Unstable? Taylor W. Cyr University of California, Riverside BIBLID [0873-626X (2017) 45; pp. 245–264] DOI: 10.1515/disp-2017-0006 Abstract Recently, John Maier has developed a unified account of various agen- tive modalities (such as general abilities, potentialities, and skills). Ac- cording to him, however, adopting the account provides an alternative framework for thinking about free will and moral responsibility, one that reveals an unacceptable instability in semicompatibilism (the view that the freedom required for moral responsibility is compatible with determinism even if the freedom to do otherwise is not). In this paper, I argue that Maier is mistaken about the implications of his account and sketch a semicompatibilist proposal that can, without countenancing any instability, accept Maier’s unified account of the agentive modalities. Keywords Ability, John Martin Fischer, John Maier, option, semicompatibilism. 1 Introduction Semicompatibilism is the view that the freedom required for moral responsibility is compatible with causal determinism even if the abil- ity (or freedom) to do otherwise is not. According to John Martin Fischer, who both introduced the term semicompatibilism and has la- bored much in defense of the view, one appealing feature of the view is that it does not leave our status as morally responsible agents—and thus our being appropriate candidates for the reactive attitudes (such as resentment and gratitude), and perhaps even our being persons, in some sense—to depend on whether or not our world is causally deterministic.1 As Fischer puts it, semicompatibilism maintains ‘that our basic status as distinctively free and morally responsible agents 1 See Fischer 1994 for more on semicompatibilism and what is at stake in debates about freedom and moral responsibility.

  • Moderate Reasons-Responsiveness, Moral Responsibility, and Manipulation
    This is the penultimate version of an essay published in Freedom and Determinism, Ed. Joe Keim-Campbell, Michael O'Rourke, and David Shier (MIT Press) 2004. Moderate Reasons-Responsiveness, Moral Responsibility, and Manipulation Todd R. Long, California Polytechnic State University I may be a bird in a cage, but at least it’s your cage.—Old 97’s Frankfurt-type examples have proven to be quite helpful in our thinking about the relation between freedom and moral responsibility. Harry Frankfurt designed his own examples to show that an agent can be morally responsible even if that agent could not have done otherwise.1 Following Frankfurt’s lead, many philosophers have developed their own Frankfurt-type examples to extend our understanding and sometimes to exercise our intuitions about the limits of moral responsibility and freedom.2 In this essay, I join this enterprise by providing a novel Frankfurt-type example designed to reveal the limits of moral responsibility, given a new theory of responsibility developed by John Martin Fischer and Mark Ravizza. Although I am sympathetic to the mechanism-based theory of moral responsibility that Fischer and Ravizza (hereafter, “F&R”) argue for in Responsibility and Control, I believe there is trouble for the way in which they apply their theory to Frankfurt-type examples. I will show that F&R’s theory handles my test cases appropriately, but accepting my conclusion requires us (and them) to deny the seemingly plausible intuition that certain cases of rather severe external manipulation rule out moral responsibility. In what follows I first summarize F&R’s notion of guidance control with an eye toward explaining their preferred notion of reasons-responsiveness (namely, “moderate reasons- responsiveness”).

  • Ontologizing the Public Realm: Arendt and the Political
    123 Ontologizing the Public Realm – Arendt and the Political Cecilia Sjöholm Within the tradition of German philosophy, the idea of a public realm has incarnated the possibilities of emancipation and enligh- tenment. To Immanuel Kant, the public sphere opened up in the eighteenth century represents a victory of reason over private interests. To Jürgen Habermas, the debates that are undertaken within the public sphere represent a promise of democracy. In this latter interpretation, the possibilities for communication are con- ditioned by the public realm, and the possibilities of democracy are conditioned by the communication taking place in the public realm; the goal of democracy is to make it possible, for as many people as possible, to participate in public debates. To Habermas as for Kant, the public sphere represents the possibilities of eman- cipation; we participate in open discussion and debate with a kind of unaffected enthusiasm where we are able to transcend our pri- vate interests, thereby participating in the realm of freedom opened up by the modern discovery of normativity. In a similar way, Hannah Arendt idealised the polis of ancient Greece as a retrospective vision of political freedom. But to Arendt, the political impact of the public realm is less about the trajectory of modernity, the realization of reason or normative language. It is, rather, an ontologized vision of how our concepts of reality and truth arise. Rather than defining human reality as a product of The Human, Arendt’s describes it as the product of CECILIA SJÖHOLM plurality. Through the gathering of perspectives which are realized in and through public realm, in its historical versions as given in the polis, the res publica and so on, what Arendt calls reality comes into being.
