Holroyd, J. (2018) Two ways of socializing moral responsibility: Circumstantialism versus scaffolded- responsiveness. In: Hutchison, K., Mackenzie, C. and Oshana, M., (eds.) Social Dimensions of Moral Responsibility. Oxford University Press , pp. 137-162. ISBN 9780190609610
Abstract
Tis chapter is concerned with the implications of two important developments in the recent literature on moral responsibility: frst, there has been a sustained defense of the view that moral responsibility is constituted by our social practices, rather than any metaphysically deep notion antecedent to our social relations (the social thesis). Second, it has been asked whether and why we might want such practices (the justifcation thesis). Te answers to these questions then guide the articulation and justifcation of the standards for responsible agency and the norms internal to the practice that govern when individuals are liable to the moral responses of praise or blame.
