Ways to be Blameworthy: Rightness, Wrongness, and Responsibility

Autor Elinor Mason
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 iul 2021
There must be some connection between our deontic notions, rightness and wrongness, and our responsibility notions, praise- and blameworthiness.Yet traditional approaches to each set of concepts tend to take the other set for granted. This book takes an integrated approach to these questions, drawing on both ethics and responsibility theory, and thereby illuminating both sets of concepts. Elinor Mason describes this as ‘normative responsibility theory’: the primary aim is

Recenzii

Ways to be Blameworthy is clearly an important contribution to the literature on moral responsibility.
I think anyone with a serious philosophical interest in praiseworthiness and blameworthiness and their relationship to the deontic concepts of right and wrong would find Mason's book to be an excellent resource and there can be little doubt that her work will be influential in normative ethics for many years to come.
Elinor Mason has written a short, absorbing book on blameworthiness and responsibility. It is deeply engaged with the current literature, but not in a way that detracts from the overall story Mason has to tell. What's more important, the book seems to get things roughly right -- that is, it seems to describe what we do when we blame people: no small feat for a practice so messy and complicated as blaming.
