Liberty Worth the Name: Locke on Free Agency
ISBN: 9780691057064 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This is the first comprehensive interpretation of John Locke's solution to one of philosophy's most enduring problems: free will and the nature of human agency. Many assume that Locke defines freedom as merely the dependency of conduct on our wills. And much contemporary philosophical literature on free agency regards freedom as a form of self-expression in action. Here, Gideon Yaffe shows us that Locke conceived free agency not just as the freedom to express oneself, but as including also the freedom to transcend oneself and act in accordance with "the good." For Locke, exercising liberty... This is the first comprehensive interpretation of John Locke's solution to one of philosophy's most enduring problems: free will and the nature of ... |

Attempts: In the Philosophy of Action and the Criminal Law
ISBN: 9780199664641 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Gideon Yaffe presents a ground-breaking work which demonstrates the importance of philosophy of action for the law. Many people are serving sentences not for completing crimes, but for trying to. So the law governing attempted crimes is of practical as well as theoretical importance. Questions arising in the adjudication of attempts intersect with questions in the philosophy of action, such as what intention a person must have, if any, and what a person must do, if anything, to be trying to act. Yaffe offers solutions to the difficult problems courts face in the adjudication of attempted...

ISBN: 9780198803324 / Angielski / Twarda / 2018 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Gideon Yaffe presents a theory of criminal responsibility according to which child criminals deserve leniency not because of their psychological, behavioural, or neural immaturity but because they are denied the vote.

Manifest Activity: Thomas Reid's Theory of Action
ISBN: 9780199268559 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Manifest Activity presents and critically examines the model of human power, the will, our capacities for purposeful conduct, and the place of our agency in the natural world of one of the most important and traditionally under-appreciated philosophers of the 18th century: Thomas Reid. The book examines Reid's arguments for this view and the view's implications for the nature of character, motivation and the special kind of causation involved in the production of human behavior.

Manifest Activity: Thomas Reid's Theory of Action
ISBN: 9780199228034 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Manifest Activity presents and critically examines Thomas Reid's doctrines about the model of human power, the will, our capacities for purposeful conduct, and the place of our agency in the natural world. Reid is one of the most important philosophers of the 18th century, but hitherto under-appreciated; through the reconstruction of his arguments, many of which have never before been discussed, Gideon Yaffe demonstrates that Reid's simple prose and direct style belie the complexity of the views he advocates and the subtlety of the reasons he offers in their favor.
For Reid, contrary to... Manifest Activity presents and critically examines Thomas Reid's doctrines about the model of human power, the will, our capacities for purposeful con...

The Age of Culpability: Children and the Nature of Criminal Responsibility
ISBN: 9780198860020 / Angielski / Miękka / 2020 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Why be lenient towards children who commit crimes? Reflection on the grounds for such leniency is the entry point into the development, in this book, of a theory of the nature of criminal responsibility and desert of punishment for crime. Gideon Yaffe argues that child criminals are owed lesser punishments than adults thanks not to their psychological, behavioural, or neural immaturity but, instead, because they are denied the vote. This conclusion is reached through accounts of the nature of criminal culpability, desert for wrongdoing, strength of legal reasons, and what it is to have a...
