  • Bernard Williams Utilitarianism And
    Bernard williams utilitarianism and Continue Lecture Supplement on Bernard Williams Against Utilitarianism (1973) Copyright © 2013 Bruce W. Hauptly Bernard Williams argues that utilitarianism (and consequence in general) relies on the extreme notion of impartiality that focuses solely on the consequences of our actions. Williams uses two examples to try to show that there is a serious problem with utilitarianism here: the doctrine deprives agents of their integrity. He argues that this is because utilitarianism separates an agent's actions from his projects. Text: 245 Consequentialism is basically indifferent to what I do, or produced what I do, where the concept itself is broad enough to include, for example, situations in which other people do what I did them do, or allowed them to do, or encouraged them to do, or to give them a chance to do. All that's interested in making these cases are the consequences of what I do, and that attitude is broad enough to include the relationships just mentioned, and many others. -Please note that this sentence is only clear after one has read the entire article! 246 Utilitarianism is excessively committed to the strong doctrine of negative responsibility, which stems from the fact that it assigns ultimate value to States. (See page 225 below! -... from a moral point of view (for utilitarian and subsequent) there is no clear difference, which is only to lead to a certain result, not to its production. The fact that the doctrine of negative responsibility thus represents the extreme of impartiality and abstraction from the identity of the agent, leaving only the locus of causal interference in the world, is not just a superficial paradox.

  • Aristotle and the Problem of Intentionality1
    Philosophy and Phenomenological Research Vol. LVIII, No. 2, June 1998 Aristotle and the Problem of Intentionality1 VICTOR CASTON Brown University Aristotle not only formulates the problem of intentionality explicitly, he makes a solution to it a requirement for any adequate theory of mind. His own solution, however, is not to be found in his theory of sensation, as Brentano and others have thought. In fact, it is precisely because Aristotle regards this theory as inadequate that he goes on to argue for a distinct new ability he calls “phantasia.” The theory of content he develops on this basis (unlike Brentano’s) is profoundly naturalistic: it is a representational theory, for- mulated in terms of the causal powers and physical magnitudes of the body. Contemporary interest in intentionality is often traced to Franz Brentano’s Psychology from an Empirical Standpoint. But Brentano did not think he was being original at all. He saw himself as belonging to a tradition reaching all the way back to Aristotle that recognized the “directedness” of mental acts. For Brentano, intentionality was a means to a further end, that of securing the autonomy of psychology: while all mental phenomena exhibit intentionality, he argued, no physical phenomenon does; therefore, the subject matter of psychology must fall outside the scope of the physical sciences ([1874] 1924, 1.124–25). This thesis has had a checkered fate. But the nature of intentional- ity has proven to be of significant interest in its own right. If it is a real feature of the world, it must be possible to account for its nature, in all its peculiarities—a task which proves difficult for everyone, from the most hard- boiled materialist to dualists of the most extravagant sort.
