Robert Kane Filosofía luck Free will determinism dialectic of selfhood ultimate responsibility For four decades, I have been developing a distinctive view of free will according to which agents are required to be ultimately responsible for the creation or formation of their own wills (characters and purposes). The aim of this paper is to explain how a free will of this traditional kind -which I argue is incompatible with determinism- can be reconciled with modern developments in the sciences and philosophy. I address criticisms that a nondeterminist free will of this kind does not allow sufficient agent control, reduces to mere chance or randomness, fails to account of moral responsibility, and cannot be reconciled with modern science; and I relate such a free will to the nature of the self or person by developing what I call a "¿dialectic of selfhood." 2009 artículo científico 0120-0062 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=80914951003 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=809 Ideas y Valores application/pdf Universidad Nacional de Colombia Ideas y Valores (Colombia) Num.141 Vol.58 |
