Scanlon reframes current philosophical debates as he explores the moral permissibility of an action. Blame, he argues, is a response to the meaning of an action rather than its permissibility. This analysis leads to a novel account of the conditions of moral responsibility and to important conclusions about the ethics of blame. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |

Scanlon gives a very persuasive account of permissibility and meanings of actions. His account of blameworthiness and blame are also compelling, but some of the details seem to me a little dubious. Specifically, I am skeptical that people can be blamed for things that are not under their control. That being said, Scanlon's arguments are the most convincing that I have read that show how that it might be possible to do so. All in all, I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in the diverse character of our moral experience, specifically when it comes to our moral attitudes and blaming practices. ( )
