Responsiveness and Moral Responsibility

(trans. Marcin Iwanicki and Joanna Klara Teske)

Keywords: free will, moral responsibility, reason-responsiveness

Abstract

The author presents a model of moral responsibility based on the actual sequence and the notion of reason-responsiveness, and draws an analogy between this model and Robert Nozick’s model of knowledge based on the actual sequence. In addition, the concept of semicompatibilism is introduced and explained.
