Reparations, Responsibility, and Formalism : A Reply to Carnes
Philosophia 49 (2):643-649 (2021)

In a recent paper, Thomas Carnes develops a novel argument for reparations for historical injustices. This Reply shows that Carnes succeeds only at the cost of invoking an implausible formalism. The Reply also presents in brief a simpler argument for reparations.Author's Profile
