Actions and Events
Journal of Philosophical Research 20:585-594 (1995)
| Abstract | Kent Bach has argued that certain traditional problems of action theory (conceming the individuation of actions, their timing, their location, and the manner in which they enter into causal relations) arise only on the supposition that actions are events, and he has argued further that actions are not events. In this paper these arguments are examined and rejected | |||||||||
