Author: David Shoemaker

David Shoemaker presents an original, pluralistic theory of the nature of responsibility, built out of the different kinds of emotional responses people tend to have to the expressions of different kinds of quality of will. The approach is motivated by the ambivalent reactions had to several real-life agents on the margins of our moral responsibility communities, including those with clinical depression, Alzheimer’s dementia, obsessive-compulsive disorder, psychopathy, autism, and intellectual disabilities. Shoemaker develops and defends a tripartite theory of responsibility, with attributability being about quality of character, answerability being about quality of judgment, and accountability being about quality of regard. Armed with crucial empirical details, Shoemaker then investigates the predictions of the theory for each specific type of marginal agent, as well as what practical advice the theory might imply for their caregivers and loved ones.”David Shoemaker presents an original, pluralistic theory of the nature of responsibility, built out of the different kinds of emotional responses people tend to have to the expressions of different kinds of quality of will.

Responsibility from the Margins 1st Table of contents:

Part I: The Tripartite Theory of Responsibility

  • 1. Attributability
    • (This chapter introduces the concept of attributability as one form of responsibility, focusing on the expression of character traits and their connection to sentiments like admiration and disdain.)
  • 2. Answerability
    • (This chapter introduces answerability, which is about one’s capacity to govern actions and attitudes by evaluative judgments, and its connection to sentiments like regret and pride.)
  • 3. Accountability
    • (This chapter introduces accountability, which concerns one’s ability to regard others, both evaluatively and emotionally, and its connection to sentiments like anger and gratitude.)

Part II: Ambivalence at the Margins

  • Introduction to Part II

  • 4. Depression and Scrupulosity: The Boundaries of the Deep Self

    • (This chapter applies the tripartite theory to cases of clinical depression and scrupulosity, examining how these conditions might affect different types of responsibility.)

  • 5. Psychopathy and Autism: The Limits of Regard

    • (This chapter delves into psychopathy and autism, analyzing how impairments in the capacity for “regard” impact accountability.)

  • 6. Psychopathy and Intellectual Disability: Impairments of Judgment

    • (This chapter further explores psychopathy alongside intellectual disability, focusing on how these conditions might affect one’s capacity for “judgment” and thus answerability.)

  • 7. Deprivation and Dementia: How History Does and Doesn’t Matter

    • (This chapter considers cases of severe formative deprivation and dementia, exploring the role of an agent’s history and its implications for responsibility.)
