Does Situationism Threaten Free Will and Moral Responsibility?
JOURNAL OF journal of moral philosophy 14 (2017) 698-733 MORAL PHILOSOPHY brill.com/jmp Does Situationism Threaten Free Will and Moral Responsibility? Michael McKenna Department of Philosophy, University of Arizona [email protected] Brandon Warmke Department of Philosophy, Bowling Green State University [email protected] Abstract The situationist movement in social psychology has caused a considerable stir in phi- losophy. Much of this was prompted by the work of Gilbert Harman and John Doris. Both contended that familiar philosophical assumptions about the role of character in the explanation of action were not supported by experimental results. Most of the ensuing philosophical controversy has focused upon issues related to moral psychol- ogy and ethical theory. More recently, the influence of situationism has also given rise to questions regarding free will and moral responsibility. There is cause for concern that a range of situationist findings are in tension with the reasons-responsiveness putatively required for free will and moral responsibility. We develop and defend a response to the alleged situationist threat to free will and moral responsibility that we Michael McKenna is Keith Lehrer Chair and Professor of Philosophy at the University of Arizona. He primarily works in free will and responsibility. Brandon Warmke is Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Bowling Green State University. He primarily works in moral psychology and moral responsibility.

WHAT I COULDN’T DO AT HOME CANDACE A. VOGLER Candace Vogler took her Bachelor’s degree at Mills College (1985) and earned her doctor- ate in Philosophy (1994) and her doctoral certification in English Literature and Cultural Studies (1992) at the University of Pittsburgh. She joined the Department of Philosophy at the University of Chicago in 1992, became an Associate Professor in 2000, and a Professor in 2007. From 2000 to 2007, she co-directed the Master of Arts Program for the University of Chicago Humanities Division. She is the author of John Stuart Mill’s Deliberative Land- scape (Routlege, 2001) and Reasonably Vicious (Harvard, 2002). She works in ethics, social and political philosophy, sexuality and gender studies, psychoanalysis, Marxism, and phi- losophy and literature. – Address: Department of Philosophy, The University of Chicago, 1010 E. 59th Street, Chicago, IL 60637, USA. E-mail: [email protected] I have had two careers in the States since completing my doctoral work and joining the Philosophy faculty at the University of Chicago. I work in Anglophone analytic philoso- phy. I also work in literary theory and cultural studies. The structure of the North Amer- ican Anglophone academy is such that these careers are almost completely distinct. Ana- lytic philosophers do not normally read Lacan, say, or Marx, or Freud. Hegel and Heidegger are a bit of a stretch for them. And when analytic philosophers do read outside the boundaries of their chosen sub-disciplines, they read as though everyone of philosoph- ical interest was setting out to do analytic philosophy (it’s just that most of them do it very badly). -

POSTSCRIPT: THE PRACTICE OF ETHICS Delivered with slides almost exactly as written, March 12, 2009, at Case Western Reserve University. Nour, 2008. 266 POSTSCRIPT The point of this talk is not to school you in the practice of ethics, but to raise questions about the practice of eth- ics. There is a standard picture of the practice of ethics that goes like this: Ethical theory is done in a classroom. It is divided into nor- mative theory, meta-ethics, and descriptive ethics. Students learn to see how the ethics in their society and community works; they learn how to discover true ethical beliefs and sometimes discover them during class. Through meta-ethics, they understand what it is to have an ethical belief. Then — and here comes the practice part — they go out and practice ethics. In this picture, the domain of ethics is the domain of everyday life, and academic life has the role of provid- ing the theory of everyday life, in this case, the theory of ethics. The point, then, is to apply what you learn in the classroom. The school is the think-tank for your world. Of course, the expression “ethics” is equivocal, and can be a field of study, rather than the domain of what we should do and how we should live. In the first picture, we focused on a meaning of the word1 “ethics” that comes up when we speak of someone being ethical or unethical. When we do speak of someone being ethical, we mean that her ethics are solid: she is, for instance, a good per- son, does the right thing, and so on. -

The previous version of this mailing was incorrectly labeled as "February 2016". IN THIS ISSUE LEAD ARTICLE: Goodness, Survival and Flourishing, by Darcia Narvaez, Ph.D. MEET OUR RESEARCHERS: Featuring Dr. Paul Condon, Dr. Christy Wilson-Mendenhall and Dr. John Dunne RECENT PUBLICATIONS & NEWS SMV LEADERSHIP TEAM ~ RECENT PUBS & PRESENTATIONS GOODNESS, SURVIVAL AND FLOURISHING By Darcia Narvaez, Ph.D. Darcia Narvaez is co-PI for the Self, Motivation & Virtue Project and Professor of Psychology at the University of Notre Dame. She publishes extensively on moral development and education. A recent edited volume is Developing the Virtues: Integrating Perspectives (with Julia Annas and Nancy Snow). She is a fellow of the American Psychological Association and the American Educational Research Association. She is executive editor of the Journal of Moral Education. She also writes a popular blog for Psychology Today (“Moral Landscapes”). (This article was originally published in Philosophical News (12.6). It is reprinted here with permission. Philosophical News is now the oTcial publication for the European Society of Moral Philosophy.) It was not too long ago that being good went hand in hand with survival and with flourishing. In our ancestral context (99% of human genus history) prior to the dominance of settled, agricultural societies, humans lived in small, nomadic bands. These provided for the evolved needs of offspring and fostered normal-optimal development. Although mortality rates were high before age 15 (similar to before 1850 in Western societies), those who survived were intelligent in knowing how to live well on the earth and with others, including with other-than-humans.
