Abstract:
In ‘Alternate Possibilities and Moral Responsibility,’ Harry Frankfurt introduces a scenario aimed at showing that the having of alternative possibilities is not required for moral responsibility. According to the Principle of Alternative Possibilities (PAP), an agent is morally responsible for her action only if she could have done otherwise; Frankfurt thinks his scenario shows that PAP is, in fact, false. Frankfurt also thinks that the denial of PAP gives credence to compatibilism, the thesis that an agent could both be causally determined in all her actions and yet be morally responsible. Since its introduction, Frankfurt's original example has generated a voluminous literature, including a plethora of other, more complicated, Frankfurt-style examples (FSEs).

Abstract:
AbstractThis critical notice provides an overview of Harry Frankfurt’s On Inequality and assesses whether Frankfurt is right to argue that equality is merely formal and empty. I counter-argue that egalitarianism, properly tweaked and circumscribed, can be defended against Frankfurt’s repudiation. After surveying the main arguments in Frankfurt’s book, I argue that whatever plausibility the ‘doctrine of sufficiency’ defended by Frankfurt may have, it does not strike a fatal blow against egalitarianism. There is nothing in egalitarianism that forbids acceptance of the moral platitude expressed in sufficientarianism's positive thesis, (viz., it is morally important that everyone have enough). Nor is there anything in egalitarianism as such that makes it impossible to recognize the banal truth that there are many important things besides equality, and that many dimensions of human affairs are improperly appraised from a relational or comparative point of view. The fact that a relational or comparative point of view is sometimes out of place, however, surely does not mean that it always is. I conclude with the suggestion that egalitarianism is most compelling when it is understood as a normative conception of social relations (rather than, as Frankfurt seems to assume throughout his book, a thesis about the equal distribution of something) and thus presides over precisely those aspects of human affairs for which that relational or comparative point of view is germane.

Abstract:
According to Harry Frankfurt’s account of moral responsibility, an agentis morally responsible only if her reflected choices and actions are not constrained by an irresistible force —either from the first- or the third-person perspective. I shall argue here that this claim is problematic. Given some of the background assumptions of Frankfurt’s discussion, there seem to be cases according to which one may be deemed responsible, although one’s reflected choices and actions are constrained by an irresistible force. The conclusion is that Frankfurt should have acknowledged that freedom from an irresistible force is not a necessary condition for responsibility.

Abstract:
For nearly forty years now, Frankfurt cases have served as one of the major contributors to the compatibilist's cause with respect to moral responsibility. These cases typically involve a causally preempted condition that is supposed to guarantee a choice without causing it. This has had the effect of softening up some to the idea that determinism does not exclude moral responsibility simply in virtue of guaranteeing a unique future. I believe that these traditional Frankfurt cases adequately support this cause. But I also believe that the traditional versions of Frankfurt cases suffer from some rhetorical defects.My strategy is as follows. First, I want to respond to a dilemma that has been raised by some libertarians against arguments utilizing Frankfurt cases. This dilemma has the effect of raising a question-begging charge against such arguments. Part of my response is to draw attention to the relevant principle that I think Frankfurt cases should really target, a principle slightly different from Harry Frankfurt's original Principle of Alternate Possibilities. Second, I elaborate and defend the claim that traditional Frankfurt cases involve causal preemption.

Abstract:
Currently the most influential accounts of personal autonomy, at least in the Englishspeaking world, focus on providing conditions under which agents can be said to exercise self-control. Two distinct accounts of personal autonomy have emerged in this tradition: firstly, hierarchical models grounded in the work of Harry Frankfurt; and secondly, systems division models most famously articulated by Gary Watson. In this thesis I show the inadequacies of both of these models by exploring the problematic views of the self and self-control underlying each model. I will suggest that the problems faced by these models stem from the fact that they endorse a problematic fragmentation of the self. I suggest that a Nietzschean account of personal autonomy is able to avoid these problems. The Nietzschean account can largely, I show, be drawn from Nietzsche’s understanding of both the ‘man of ressentiment’ and his opposite, the sovereign individual. On this picture wholeness of self – rather than fragmentation of the self – is required in order for us to be most fully autonomous. Furthermore, this wholeness of self requires the kind of integrity which is opposed to the problematic fragmentation endorsed by Frankfurt and Watson.

Abstract:
Following the writings of philosophers such as Harry Frankfurt, Gary Watson, and Alfred Mele, in this thesis I defend some central claims of the self-control view of human agency. However, I not only defend, but also supplement this view in the following two ways. First, drawing on work by Mary Midgley and Sigmund Freud I advance the claim that self-control requires the experience of internal conflict between an agent’s motivations and intentions. Second, drawing on insights from Simone de Beauvoir and Friedrich Nietzsche, as well as recent research in social psychology and cognitive science, I will argue in this thesis that self-control and vulnerability are inextricably intertwined with one another, and that as a result both are to be seen as constitutive of human agency. While it is the capacity for self-control that marks us out as human agents, I argue that it is also our uniquely human vulnerability which distinguishes our agency from the kind of agency which we might attribute to other potential or actual forms of sentience. Further, while the concepts of human agency and personhood are typically conflated in the analytic tradition of philosophy, in this thesis I will show that there are good reasons for understanding these two concepts as subtly distinct from one another. The term personhood, I will argue, can fruitfully be understood in substantive rather than purely formal terms. A person, in the superlative sense, is to be understood as someone who exercises their agency well; and, as such, persons are answerable to a number of normative prescriptions. Following Midgley, Nietzsche and Martha Nussbaum, I argue against Frankfurt’s normative prescription for personhood in the form of what he calls ‘wholeheartedness’, and offer four normative prescriptions for personhood of my own.

Abstract:
Ce mémoire est consacré à l’approche hiérarchique de Frankfurt, laquelle donne une explication de l’action autonome grâce à son modèle théorique à deux niveaux de désirs. Pour Frankfurt, l’action autonome est une action causée ou guidée par un désir qui est lui-même causé ou guidé par un désir de deuxième niveau, lequel est formé par un processus d’identification qui fait l’évaluation du désir de premier niveau. Dans un premier temps, j’étudie le développement de l’approche de Frankfurt afin de démontrer que celle-ci subit une modification essentielle : Frankfurt donne d’abord une explication causale de l’action autonome pour ensuite lui donner une explication structurale. Dans un deuxième temps, je m’arrête sur les différentes versions d’une critique adressée à son approche, la critique féministe de l’autonomie du processus d’identification. Dans un troisième temps, je présente une défense de l’approche de Frankfurt à l’égard de cette critique. Cette défense est fondée sur une interprétation du processus d’identification : je soutiens, à l’aide des développements du premier chapitre, que l’évaluation consiste en une évaluation de la conformité d’un désir à l’égard d’un modèle motivationnel, et que cette interprétation permet de répondre à la critique féministe précédemment traitée.<br>The present study is about Frankfurt’s hierarchical approach, which gives an explanation of autonomous action by means of its two-level theoretical framework. According to Frankfurt, an action is autonomous when it is caused or guided by a desire that is itself caused or guided by a second-order desire, the latter being formed by a process of identification that realizes the evaluation of the first-order desire. As a first step, I study the development of Frankfurt’s approach and I show that it undergoes a significant change: if Frankfurt first gives a causal explanation of autonomous action, he will give later on a structural explanation of this kind of action. As a second step, I review different versions of a critique of Frankfurt’s approach made by some feminists, that is, the critique of the autonomous status of the process of identification. In the third part, I defend Frankfurt’s approach regarding this critique. This defense is based on an interpretation of the process of identification: I claim, with the help of the interpretation I suggest in the first chapter, that the evaluation intrinsic to the process of identification consists in the evaluation of the conformity of a desire with a motivational model, and that this interpretation avoids the feminist critique.

Abstract:
In Harry Frankfurt’s work on freedom and the concept of a person, the idea of “identifying” with one desire rather than another plays an important role, and the difference between being “active” rather than “passive” with respect to a desire is important in explicating what is meant by “identification” in this context. The paper argues that to understand the relevant sense of being “active” here we must distinguish the first-person agency involved in such things as making up one’s mind or endorsing some desire from the idea of “managerial control” over one’s attitudes or any form of voluntarism. Making out this distinction requires appeal to a broader notion of “reason” that Frankfurt seems willing to countenance, but it is argued that without it we have no way of understanding either the notion of “identification” that he is concerned to explicate, or its contraries in alienation and ambivalence.
