The accomplishment of plans: a new version of the principle of double effect
Philosophical Studies 165 (1):49-69 (2013)
Abstract
The classical principle of double effect offers permissibility conditions for actions foreseen to lead to evil outcomes. I shall argue that certain kinds of closeness cases, as well as general heuristic considerations about the order of explanation, lead us to replace the intensional concept of intention with the extensional concept of accomplishment in double effectAuthor's Profile
