Parker's Pensées

CHAPTER

Is It Structured or Structuralism?

Taylor: Is it like how the agent is structured during that time slice or is it just an accident of history that's called structuralism? That's a good question. I'm guessing, but I'm not totally sure that it's a reference in particular to Harry Frankfort's compatibilist proposal where we can be morally responsible even if luck worries us. And then his story says them by contact just says actually history matters. Another way to put it is like moral responsibility is an essentially historical concept. Taylor: It does carry over and is useful in all different ways.
